2. National Comedy Theatre (NCT)
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 21 reviews
Similar in style to "Whose Line is it Anyway," the National Comedy Theatre is a high octane comedy show featuring the Valley's best improv comedians performing a series of games and scenes all based on audience suggestions.The audience picks the games, helps us call the fouls, and ultimately decides which team of comedians is the evening's winner. And each 7:30pm Improv Comedy Show ALL AGES! (The 9:45pm Slightly* Uncensored Shows are... Slightly* Uncensored...) It's a fast, hysterical, unique and highly interactive show and the most spontaneous improv comedy experience in the Valley!
3. Jester'Z Improv Comedy
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 26 reviews
Phoenix Comedy, Comedy Classes, Corporate Entertainment | Jester'Z Improv Comedy is the best comedy show in Phoenix. Providing entertainment since 2001!
Reviewed By SLWS1 - Cypress, United States
Great show! Cool venue! Four performers and one MC do improvisational skits, games, contests, etc. Before and during the show the audience is asked for suggestions that get built into the show. The show is 2 hours long with an intermission after the first hour. I went with my college-age daughter and we both had a ball! There were all-ages from senior citizens to babies in the audience and everyone seemed to have a great time. $15 per person (not sure if there’s a different price for seniors or children). Great price for the entertainment value. We loved it and will definitely return. If you like the tv show Who’s Line is it Anyway, you’ll like a performance at Jester’z. Recommended!

Downtown Chandler has a lot of things to do on Friday and Saturday nights -- CCA, Flix, live music. It also has great improv at improvMania! They do an early show for families and a late one for the older audience, coming up with humor from the crowd's suggestions. Very creative, fun and funny!

I bought our group tickets, and we had a wonderful time! The club owner was very accommodating at getting all of us to sit together! The food and service was great, the atmosphere was ambient and the comedians, they were off the chain!! It was an absolutely awesome night for us! This was my first comedy club experience, and I enjoyed it so much! This will be one of our regular spots!

Reviewed By B4360EQjohnh - Chandler, United States
We have been gong to Stand Up Live for years, event getting to know the management and select staff members. Top Headliners (D.L., Cedric, Frank Caliando, Katt Williams, Carlos Mencia, The Wayans, Fluffy, Bruce Bruce, Deion Cole, etc etc.) are always on the calendar. Ticket prices for shows are reasonable. Copper Blues is right next door if you are in the mood for a bar environment after the show. Service has improved as has the dining menu. Reserved table/seats is the way to go if you want to have guaranteed good seats for the show. Also suggest going to the early show to avoid having to wait outside in the line in the heat..
