Dad’s Garage Turns 31!
July 23—July 25
We're turning 31! Join us for a showcase of our amazing students, a celebration of the upcoming season, and a show featuring Dad's Garage performers throughout our 31 years. It’s comedy fun all weekend long!
Only Improv in the Building
July 3—August 28 | Fridays @ 8 p.m.
Do you find yourself preoccupied with mysterious murders and juicy secrets? Sounds like you’re addicted to true crime podcasts—and Dad’s Garage has your fix with Only Improv in the Building!
Our improviser hosts are ready to weave a tale of murder, secrets, and investigative intrigue sure to make your ears ring (and your sides split) while our ensemble provides a feast for your incredulous eyes as they bring it to life! This is Only Improv in the Building—the improvised “podcast” where Dad’s Garage turns true crime into comedy theatre!
The Tight Acquaintances
August 1—September 26 | Saturdays at 8 p.m.
The Tight Acquaintances is a comedy tribute to classic tabletop pen-and-paper RPGs (with a name that rhymes with Fungeons and Flagons) is an uproarious and magical time for hardcore tabletop gamers and the completely uninitiated alike! This season, the Tight Acquaintances are split across two different planes of existence on a season-spanning adventure—which means they’ve got a whole extra dimension to add to their absurd hijinks.
Dedicated adventurers, we’re offering full season packages—that’s a ticket to every Saturday, 8 p.m. show in the 2026 run of The Tight Acquaintances—so you don’t have to miss a single gaff, mishap, or world-shattering plot twist from our lovable, dysfunctional Acquaintances. Even better—package tickets are 20% less than individual show tickets.

Our Mission
At Dad’s Garage, it’s our mission to transform people, communities, and perspectives through laughter.
Through our dedication to nurturing artists in the beginnings of their careers, Dad’s has become a launch pad for creative success. Our performers, designers, and other creative professionals go on to become leaders in their fields, and work with other theaters across the world. By saying “Yes, and…” to emerging creative voices, we give them the support necessary to succeed in the arts.

We do hundreds of shows and dozens of formats a year. There’s something different at Dad’s every week, but you can guarantee it’ll always be funny. (Or at least we hope it is.)
