What a great time! This is like a live version of the old show Who's Line from commedy central before Drew Carry dasys. Except way better. The whole experience was pleasant and very freindly vibe. The surrounding area is cute and a great place to wlak around. Tottally recommend this for a date night. read more

excelentes improv shows Juan plus one is really grate read more

Fun, local, and inexpensive experience. A couple girlfriends and I attended a night showing and had a good time. They involve the audience plenty, and you get a good value for your dollar. No drink or food requirement, which is nice. read more

We stopped in at the last minute for a fun date night! It was a fun spot and made for an entertaining end to our date night!

Saw a comedy show last night! It was so good and hilarious!!! I decided to sell my chili peppers ticket to hang with my two friends and we decided on a whim to check this spot out lol (that is a true fact ha). One of the best nights. Juan was one of the funniest comedians ever and Alan (leotard) and the narrator and the whole crew were great. Definitely coming back. Thanks so much. - Iris And The Shade read more

Great stand up comedians, fun crowd, easy parking and restaurants close by. This is my 2nd time here. Lots of fun! Buy the tickets and get ready to laugh! read more

We LOVE improv city. We used to go to their shows in Irvine back in the day. Unfortunately, they just aren't getting the needed traction at their Tustin location. We went by on a Saturday night... and there were no people in the audience. We knew it wouldn't be fun with just two of us there so we passed. Super disappointed. They are worth a watch if you get more people involved! read more

Very fun. I had a great time. Really good and getting the audience to participate!!!!

A comedy show at a bowling alley? It has to be bad right? Well, don't judge a comedy show by the venue. And, would all of my Yelpers lead me and my gf astray? Not at all. The ImprovCity team nailed it. Now you should know if you like improv because it's not everyone's cup of tea. But for me, I'm in awe of how quickly these performers are able to think of funny things to do and or say off the cuff. It's like watching a combination of actors do ad lib and rappers free styling. The ImprovCity team works well together and they vibe off of each other. It's beautiful to see when the skits come together and when it doesn't it's funny too. The group is split into teams and the competition brings a fun element of rivalry. Don't worry the comedy show isn't performed next to the bowling lanes. The show is upstairs where there's a few rooms with a stage and maybe 100 seats for guests to watch. Buy your tickets online for upcoming shows. The tickets are very affordable and if you go to the 7:30 showing you can bring older children. The 9pm show is for mature audiences due to the language and adult topics. A perfect juxtaposition, drinks and food. Buy your alcoholic drinks downstairs at the bar and food at the food stand and bring it upstairs to enjoy during the show. There's also an intermission so you can go pee and grab more food and cocktails. If you're looking for a fun night out that won't hurt your wallet, this is a great choice. Very chill, entertaining, and even though this show has five stars on Yelp people are still sleeping on ImprovCity. Don't make the same mistake. read more

This show and its performers deserve nothing less than 5 stars! I went to the 7:30 show this past Friday and I was in stitches the whole time. The price for what I got was worth every penny--just $12. My favorite game was Round of 5, where the actors had to guess who they were using only gibberish and gestures, and they freakin' guessed like 90% on the first try; my wife and I were like no way! :-) If you're in Irvine, come see this show. We live in Corona, and we came to see it. I also take the drop-in classes here on Mondays, which are led by the show performers, too. Morganna, Devin, and Andrew are great instructors (I'm sure everyone is, but those are the only three I've been lucky enough to get so far). read more

Different show every time. Good laughs! Cheap entertainment!! You gotta check it out!

We had so much fun last night at Improv City. We celebrated my son's 11th birthday and EVERYONE had a blast. Our ages ranged from 10 - 70, and every person asked to come back again when the show is over. We laughed and were entertained the entire time. It would be a great girls' night out, date night, family night, or even a birthday party. We will be back! read more

Hilarious show! I discovered ImprovCity by mere coincidence online while browsing comedy clubs. I am so glad that I found them. Every evening is a different experience. I highly recommend the late night show where it is uncensored. read more

These guys are AMAAAZING! The host is energetic and gets the audience to interact and the actors do a great job incorporating the ideas of the audience. They literally sang to a trance song. At an improv show. It was epic and my heart goes out to the poor souls who had to fulfill my demands. YOU GUYS ARE SO AWESOME!!! We walked out of there and immediately decided to come back AND we wanted to try some of their classes. This is a fantastic date night idea. Don't be afraid to be loud! Participate as much as you can, the actors won't disappoint. read more

Top shelf improv-comedy show; casual atmosphere: a great combination! I cannot believe this talent-packed show is only $10! We arrived just before 7:30, and had our pick of seats- front row of course! By 8pm, the place was packed- a full house. The show began as a high energy host charged in and got the crowd pumped! Then the crew came in- all bringing talent and skill to the show. The games and skits and scenes were very fun and funny! The show moved at a great pace, and they even added an extra game just before the end. We will definitely return for another great night of improv!! Thanks guys! read more

WOW! Great entertainment for all ages - and it's cheaper than seeing a movie! Every show is different yet it's always family-friendly. And it's an intimate setting where you can actually be connect with the experience. We bring out-of-town guests so they can enjoy their own "Whose Line Is It Anyway" experience. You can even go bowling before/afterwards. read more

Surprised my husband with a 9:30 uncensored show here for his birthday and loved it! Him and all of our friends were cracking up the entire time. I love that the cast is all different ages and personalities, but that they come together to put on amazing show! We didn't know what to expect coming in - the venue is on the second floor of a bowling alley, in a pretty cozy space and not the most modern venue...but as soon as the show started I knew it was going to be hilarious. It's a great place for date night or a night out with friends (and extremely affordable too!). I love the amount of audience participation and creativity the cast puts on. We will definitely be back! read more

ImprovCity - Birthday song! - Comedy Clubs Near Me - Tustin, California

What a great addition to Old Town Tustin. We went last night and the house was packed! The Improvisationalists were quick and witty with whatever the audience threw at them. I laughed harder than I have for awhile. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a fun night! read more

I came in here to try out their Monday drop-in improv classes and from there I started watching their shows and eventually signing up for their Improv 8-week classes! I definitely recommend ImprovCity for anyone who wants to either a) learn the basics of improv and advance up, b) wants to see some hilarious comedy from the pros, and c) just curious about finding out what improv is. Honestly, just come to one show and see what you think. The performers are a good balance because each bring in their own unique style to their comedy. I'm wowed every time from the funny scenarios and games they come up with. If you just want to try and see what this improv thing really is, just come Monday night and do their drop-in class. What do you got to lose?! read more

Such a great time we had at improvCity. The improv company is just amazing. The new space is fabulous. The location in downtown Tustin is perfect for date night or a night with your family. I cannot say enough great things about ImprovCity! Buy tickets and see a show! read more

Absolutely amazing experience. Super funny, super interactive, amazing people. Felt like home. Will come back again :D

Great improv shows! It's awesome to see something new and different each time, and what a great idea for a date night! If you like shows like Whose Line is it Anyway? Then you should definitely check them out! read more

First timers at their 9:30 show. We had a great time! The "clean comedy" didn't seem like it was going to be too funny but we got a good laugh. The coupon on Yelp is pretty cool too! read more

Just good ol' fun on a Saturday night! We had a blast! Definitely a laughter-filled way to spend an evening with friends and loved ones! We would sooooo do it over again!! read more

"Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor." I've been to improv nights in college and enjoyed seeing some of my friends making a fool of themselves. I see the need to add more of that humor in my life and can add more improvisation in daily activities and talks. I went to a 9:30PM show not expecting to laugh my ass off and ended up doing just that. Location: Irvine Bowling Lanes? Why yes, it's on the second floor and in a small conference room. I had no idea, there was a second floor. More surprisingly, I didn't know that Irvine Lanes used to be a hotel! You could tell be the long hallway layout on the second floor. If you bored or showed up 2 hours ahead like I did, you'll have some cool options: Play bowling or grab drinks in the bar. My friends and I ended up hitting up TRADE and grabbing food/drinks there. We also went back to Irvine lanes and getting drinks here as well. The drinks are reasonably priced. $5.50 to $6 for solo size cups of beer and $7 well drinks I believed. Upon heading upstairs, you'll find somebody with a cashier box waiting by the stairs. Pay them in cash or card. It's low key so they didn't have receipts and so they claimed that they'll remember you and let you pass if you leave. Entertainment. There's a cast of about 12 members that add unique twists of humor. It's similar to Who's Line Is It Anyways, but not as talented. They'll have audience members participate and give out suggestions. You'll be able to vote and perhaps participate in one of their skits. I wish that audience members could be on stage and learn a few tricks. That would be amazing! read more

Hilariously funny. A fantastic double date with the friends! Would highly recommend! We went for the 9:30 Saturday night uncensored show. It was above a bowling alley and you can bring your own drinks! The entire show is audience centered, it makes it even better to have your suggestion used. Had an amazing time, and will we definitely be returning for more shows! read more

Made an impromptu decision to check ImprovCity last night. We went for the 9:30 pm uncensored show on a Saturday night. We took advantage of the yelp offer of 50% off the second ticket so it only came to $15 for 2 people for 90 minuets which is a steal! This is a small comedy circuit. Everyone is friendly and the host was great! The comedians were good. I understand it is Improv so totally get why it wasn't roll-off-the-floor funny. Still a great time and I will definitely go back because this was only my first time! They also have improv classes in the week which I would love to check out. PS - I won a free ticket because I volunteered and gave them my phone to read my text messages for one of the games lol read more

Fun night with friends or alone if you'd like some laughs . Some of the cast is very talented and quick witted - we did not eat there so can't recommend any of snack bar items . read more

Super fun place to go to if you're looking to laugh your butt off! Also a great idea for date night!

A very fun time, and the value can't be overstated. Perfect for a date night, it feels intimate, engaging, interactive, and of course ultra funny! read more

Best clean entertainment value in OC. Always a great time with friends, we laughed and laughed and laughed.

Improvcity is a great activity for a Thursday Friday or Saturday night. They have a great rotating cast and each evening is a different style and group than the last. The first shows are 100% clean and family friendly so kids are allowed. Be warned though that the second show is "uncensored" so leave those little ones at home. This is true improv comedy where everything is made up on the spot, THIS IS NOT STAND UP! So don't mix them up because while they both take skill, this seems to be more "intense" because they have no other prepared jokes to fall back on. Also, be willing to participate!! They larger the crowds and more suggestions offered the better for everyone! read more

Improvcity is a great venue for enjoying comedy. The PG-13 performances are a nice way to enjoy the hilarity with family members. The restrooms are very clean. The concession stand has lots of good snacks and drinks. The improvers kept me laughing throughout the performance. I will definitely return! read more

Attended the 9.30PM Friday night show and had a great time. The entertainers were confident in their delivery and put on a great show. They had a "super challenge" which involved charades and it was hilarious. I'm not someone who enjoys the usual comedy, but I had a good laugh at the show. I really like how each cast member has their own style, it creates a nice diversity! The 9.30PM shows are more "uncensored", but nothing overly sexual, offensive, political nor racist. 6.30PM shows are more PG13, but we did have a young audience member in our group! At only $10 per ticket (second ticket half off on Yelp, yay!), it's definitely something you can consider attending regularly. They welcome outside food and drinks so you can grab something from Irvine Lanes before heading upstairs to where ImprovCity is. They have 6.30PM and 9.30PM shows on Friday and Saturdays, and 6.30PM shows on Thursdays. read more

Funny, clean, inspired cast. It was really refreshing to be able to take the whole family to ImprovCity performances. We've seen these guys three other times, all very original and fresh routines. So happy with their performance we hired them for daughter's 15th birthday. They were a hit!!!!! Highly recommend these guys to anyone willing to participate and have fun. read more

Love this place. This is a really fun and reasonably priced comedy show. Have taken the kids, taken a date. All experiences have been great.

$10 for an entire evening of entertainment in Orange County???? Must be a joke! (no pun in intended) no drink minimum like all other comedy shows so you're really just paying for entertainment. My BF's co worker invited us to join them on a saturday night to this comedy event, and although I had never heard of it before, I wanted to try something different in orange county. i was a little skeptical at first, i mean a family friendly "clean" comedy? how fun can THAT be? well, it was actually a whole lot of fun, i mean, it's not like no alcohol allowed! ;) for an easy and quick process, buy your tickets online so when you arrive, they just check you off the list, stamp your hand and walk in. shows are at 8PM and 10PM, arrive early, hit up the bowling alley bar downstairs for pre drinks. there is a 5-7 minute intermission (which isn't very long), so get your drink on before the show. you can buy the drinks and bring them up to the show too. some reviews say there is waitress to take drink/food orders....but that definitely didn't happen the night we were here. we had to grab our own drinks. cocktails and beer run about $5-7 each. there are about 4 rows of 10 seats on each side of the room, so not a very big place so every seat is a good seat. i was really impressed by the talent of the comedians, i mean, to come up with things off the top of your head is not easy to do. some were funnier than others but overall a really good group of entertainers! they really get the audience participation which is really fun. if you're shy and worry about getting picked on, not to worry, they don't do that here. remember, this is a family friendly show. we were fortunate to have seen both shows on this night because they are running a june special, 2 shows for the price of 1. what a great deal and perfect for an awesome saturday night with friends! afterwards, go downstairs to the bowling alley and have more drinks or even do some cosmic bowling if you want the fun night to continue. read more

If you like to laugh, you'll like Improv City. If you haven't been to a Improv City show yet, go now! Great for date night or going with friends - it's hilarious and something different to do on a Friday (or Saturday) night. and at the reasonable/affordable price of $10, you can't go wrong for a couple hours of great entertainment. We've taken 8 of our friends already and they all had a great time. My mom is already planning on doing a "girls night" with her girlfriends and taking all of them and our other friend is going to hire them for their company party. We've gone to 5 shows and haven't been disappointed once. Support Improv City! With so many comedians defaulting to crass and dirty humor, it's nice to see some comedians going against all that. Orange County needs more family friendly entertainment like these guys! Which just goes to show you can be funny and have a great show without having to add in a dirty reference. read more

Love comedy clubs, and this Irvine venue is one of the best! Service is quick and efficient and friendly. The food is typical bar food, but pretty tasty! The burgers are pricey, but filling....no midnight stops to Del Taco---a real plus! They give you free passes for 4 guests on the way out, so a real bargain since we didn't have to pay to get in in the first place. Laughing is good for the soul (so is FREE!) Thanks for the great evening, Improv! read more

First time going to an Improv show in Orange County and I must say this is probably the best place you'd ever want to start. Great cast, great performances, and amazing execution. I was lucky enough to catch the Survivor 8 special and will definitely be coming back! read more
