SHOWS EVERY WEEKEND
Improv, stand-up, & sketch comedy shows added all of the time!
Pittsburgh’s Only Non-Profit Comedy Theater
Arcade Comedy Theater, founded in 2013, is dedicated to making the Pittsburgh community better through comedy. We feature at least six shows every weekend, comedy classes, family shows, and special events. Plus, we’re BYOB, have free video games in the lobby, and our theaters are accessible.
Most importantly: we’re really funny.
Pride Month at Arcade
Arcade Comedy Theater values queer voices. On our stages, in our classes, and working here behind the scenes. In honor of Pride Month, we are shining a bigger spotlight on the amazing comedic artists in the LGBTQIA+ community. All month long you’ll find great comedy shows produced by or starring queer artists.
Comedy grows communities.

Arcade Comedy Theater is Pittsburgh’s only non-profit theater dedicated to comedy, and every dollar you give helps the community stay a positive, funny place. All funds will be used to continue our Arcade Upgrade, enabling us to expand our programming, create more opportunities for a more diverse group of artists, and continue to keep ticket prices affordable for everyone in Pittsburgh. Thank you again, from all of us at Arcade Comedy Theater.
Try out a Comedy Class!
Spend three hours a night having fun, being goofy, and meeting new people. Arcade Comedy Theater’s classes in improv, stand-up, and sketch writing are the perfect release after a long day doing… stuff other than comedy! What are you waiting for? Have fun! Learn more about upcoming classes.
Kids Comedy Matinees
Penny Arcade is a comedy show designed for kids ages 5-12 years old, but fun for all ages. Performed on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays every month at 1PM, it’s the city’s only kid-centric improvised comedy show. Tickets start at just $5!
TRY OUT SOME IMPROV
Every 3rd Thursday of the month, Arcade is offering a brand new way to play: Improv Pop-Up Night! If you’ve always thought about trying improvisational comedy, but weren’t sure about signing up for a full-blown class, this is your night. For $20, you get a two-hour beginner’s workshop, some free boxed wine, and a ticket to the 8pm show that night at the Arcade!
