This is improv bloodsport, baby, and only one performer can bask in the spotlight at the top!

For a limited time, we’re opening the Dad’s Garage Vault to showcase some of our most memorable improv formats to surprise and delight Dad’s Garage fans both old and new. Every show of Dad’s Garage Vault features a different time-tested and audience-approved original improv format ready to dazzle and entertain you like it’s brand new. Need some examples? Think Dr. Frapples, Cage Match, SuperScene!, or even a twist on Rockola you never got to see!

When (fictional) danger, betrayal, and nuclear threats loom, a fearless team of improvisers is ready to say “yes, and!” to justice in a brand-new blockbuster action movie every week! These multi-talented performers aren’t just the stars of the movie—they’re also the directors, screenwriters, composers, stunt team, and special effects wizards crafting every epic moment on the spot (just don’t ask them to do the catering!) Whether you crave explosions and prison breaks or plots of vengeance with a side of romance, this show will keep you on the edge of your seat—and you and your friends will definitely be saying, “I’ll be back.”

TackyScraps is taking over Dad's Garage at 10 p.m. during Dad's After Dark! Cole Nowacki and Whittney Millsap Nowacki, united in love (and in comedy!), are ready to play. Come laugh the night away with this quirky couple!

Comedy-drama The Bear won Emmys and Golden Globes for comedy, but Dad’s Garage dares to delve into the question plaguing the minds of erudite television gourmands everywhere: what if The Bear actually was a comedy? Presenting: SCANDAL! The Bare—a lovingly absurd and spoofish take-off on the critically acclaimed television hit that sounds like it has the same title as our spoof, but doesn’t actually.

The lobby opens at 7 PM and the show starts at 10:30 PM!

Vaviana Vardot's Famous Sex Party is a comedy burlesque variety show. You can expect sensual silliness, lewd buffoonery, dirty songs and the funniest smut you've ever had the displeasure of stumbling across.

You must be 21+ to attend this performance.

Oh, Maestro! The Dad’s Garage general company competes in a group battle Royale for laughter and individual glory under the watchful eyes of the director—who assigns the matchups, keeps score, and throws ever-changing challenges at our improvisers—and the enthusiastic applause of you, the audience. A keen eye and authentic funny bones senses determine who stands heads and shoulders above the competition to be declared the Maestro! This is improv bloodsport, baby, and only one performer can bask in the spotlight at the top!
