The 9 Best Comedy Clubs in Utah!
Many would agree that laughter is the best medicine. Others say the more you laugh, the longer you live. Either way, most of us could probably use more laughter in our lives. Fortunately for residents and visitors to Utah, comedy clubs abound! Spark the giggles with an evening at one of the following nine comedy clubs in Utah.
Wiseguys Comedy Club, Salt Lake City & Ogden, UT
Featuring traveling comedians who are touring the country, this is probably Utah’s most prestigious comedy. Reserved for those of 21 years and older, the comedy is more mature but never too wild.
Quick Wits Comedy, Midvale, UT
Quick Wits Comedy is not traditional stand-up. In fact, if you go to a show, be prepared to participate. Quick Wits is actually an improvisational comedy troupe that uses audience suggestions to help them come up with comedy on the spot. The show takes the form a battle, which generates energy from the laughter of the crowd. While there is definitely some PG-13 humor, there shouldn’t be a worry about growing too offended.
The Improvables, Bountiful, UT
Focused on delivering clean comedy to a largely religious conservative Utah population, The Improvables is a live, family-friendly improv comedy group that performs at Bountiful Davis Art Center. Even though the comedy is clean, it is far from predictable.
Pickleville Playhouse, Garden City, UT
A family favorite event theater located just adjacent to Bear Lake, The Pickleville Playhouse offers comedy workshops as well as shows. That said, the type of show varies at Pickleville, meaning some nights, it isn’t comedy at all! Luckily, their schedule is always updated to show you what’s coming next.
Off the Cuff Comedy Improvisation Theater, Cedar City, UT
Typically known using the acronym OTC, the Off the Cuff Comedy Improvisation group is incredibly popular. In fact, some travel to Cedar City just to see them perform. Inexpensive and always creative comedy, this is a club that never disappoints.
Laughing Stock Improv Comedy, Draper, UT
Offering simple, reliable comedy for 20 years, Laughing Stock is great for date night, an evening with friends, or a family activity. Unfortunately for other comedy groups in Utah, it’s hard to compete with this well-established comedy group that appeals to diverse audiences.
Dry Bar Comedy, Provo, UT
A new comedy club in Provo, Dry Bar Comedy is exactly what you think it is: Comedy without alcohol. If this sounds like less fun, this club argues that being sober allows you to better enjoy the comedy you are consuming. Featuring different touring comedians, this club is quickly rising in popularity.
Improv Broadway, Provo, UT
With shows, classes, and a podcast, Improv Broadway in Provo adds to the growing list of comedy clubs in this medium-sized, creative college town. Most of the comedians are young and tickets are only $5.
Egyptian Theatre, Park City, UT
If you find yourself as a tourist in Park City, comedy may be slightly hard to come by. Luckily, Park City’s famous Egyptian Theatre hosts a substantial amount of regular comedy shows. Though sometimes you have to buy your tickets well in advance, you may also chance by a comedy show on one of the nights you are visiting the city.
