FNI comes to life in time for Halloween, bringing its trademark “all audience participation” format. Performance is NOT required, but there is no set cast for this show. With “Whose Line is it Anyway” style-games that are clearly explained and extremely fun to jump into (and likely a few skilled performers around to support you), anyone can give improv a try!

Tickets $12

The Latchkey Kids are here with their first show inside Arcade Comedy Theater, and wouldn’t you know it, it’s a Primetime Halloween Special! Join us for a variety show featuring improv, live music, and videos from those wonderfully horrible 90s. And 80s. And maybe some like early 2000s. But nothing after 2002. We do have integrity.

The Latchkey Kids were voted one of the Best Comedy Troupes of 2021 by Pittsburgh City Paper. Our parents are so proud, but they do wish we wouldn’t curse so much.
