Visit our donations page! Our community of artists, comedians and nerd do wells is bursting at the seams. We’ve grown from a humble 900 square foot room in the back of I Luv Video with three shows a week to over 15 shows a week, 130 active performers, 10 faculty members, 100 students, and hundreds more graduates from our improv and sketch comedy programs. We need more space.
We CANNOT make the move without your help. There’s no looking back now. Renovations alone will cost in excess of $25,000 (you’d be surprised how expensive a little thing like operating legally costs). There are ways you can help. Visit our kickstarter page and make a contribution. We’ll be auctioning off naming rights to literally every fixture in the building.
If there's one thing that the 1987 Marc Harmon/Kirstie Alley vehicle Summer School taught us, it's that being cooped up inside with a bunch of nerds and misfits while everyone else is enjoying their summer vacation is awesome.
ColdTowne Theater is the ONLY CENTER for IMPROV and SKETCH comedy training, private events and corporate workshops approved by the Princeton Review and accepted as course credit at every accredited university on Earth.
Our instructors have taught, trained, directed and performed at world's foremost comedy institutions (Second City, IO, UCB) and have been voted "Best Comedy Group" three years in a row! AUSTIN IMPROV CLASSES ARE ENROLLING NOW FOR THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER.
ColdTowne Theater is Austin's main stage for alternative comedy. We currently run shows Thursday through Monday, featuring the funniest comedians in Central Texas. We also run a conservatory offering the most fun acting classes Austin has to offer.
Please visit the Calendar and Classes pages for more information. Thank you for supporting local Austin comedy.
ColdTowne Theater is located at 4803-B Airport Blvd. behind I Luv Video. A map to our lovely theater has been provided by the hardworking nerds at Google.
ColdTowne Theater is sponsored in part by The Spider House and I Luv Video. We strongly encourage you to patronize our partners in keeping Austin independently awesome. Fortunately, all of these places are the best at what they do, so supporting them is a pretty sweet way to stick it to The Man.
