Welcome to the Hunger Games of Comedy. Six players enter the stage. Only one will survive. Curious Comedy Showdown pits Portland’s finest comedians against one another in a competitive improv comedy cage match that will make you laugh until you cry.

Armed only with razor-sharp wit and your suggestions, the players must create fast-paced and hilarious scenes on the spot to win audience votes – round after round – in hopes of living to see another day. Finally, you decide which player is left standing. If you like Whose Line Is It Anyway, then you’ll love this show!

You can watch our long-running flagship improv show in person at our beautiful cabaret-style main stage venue in Northeast Portland, Oregon – or – watch the slick-as-hell livestream from home with your dog on your lap. Either way, you’re going to have a good time.

If you’re looking for an alternative to the same old options – like bars, bowling, or a movie – then you’ve found it! Curious Comedy Showdown is a Portland favorite for first dates and date nights, birthday parties, bachelorette parties, company events, team bonding, and girls-night-out! Without a doubt, this show is one of the most fun and unique things to do in Portland.

Delicious food. Full bar. Big laughs. In a word? Joy.
