Laugh Your Holiday Stress Away with So U Comedy Theater’s November Improv Shows

If you’re already feeling the holiday rush and need a good laugh, So U Comedy Theater in St. George, Utah, has the perfect remedy. The local non-profit improv group is bringing back its live, unscripted comedy to the Electric Theater Center on Saturday, November 15, promising an evening filled with laughter, creativity, and community fun.

The night features two distinct shows—a Family Friendly performance at 7 PM and an Uncensored show at 9 PM. Both are fully improvised, meaning every scene and punchline is created on the spot, guided by audience suggestions. As the group likes to say, “Anything can—and usually does—happen!” Whether you’re a returning fan or a first-time visitor, you’ll never see the same show twice.

You can catch both shows at the Electric Theater Center (Upper Room 2), located at 68 E Tabernacle Street, St. George, UT. Tickets are available for purchase online at soucomedy.com or at the door. There are discounts for seniors, veterans, students, and children, making it an accessible night out for everyone.

So U Comedy Theater is all about community and creativity. Beyond their regular shows, they invite anyone curious about improv to join their Community Practice Nights, held every Monday at 7 PM at the St. George Recreation Center. These drop-in sessions are open to all skill levels and are designed to help participants learn the basics of improvisation, connect with others, and build confidence in a welcoming, no-pressure setting.

For those who want to dive even deeper, the group offers an Improv 101 course, with the next session starting in early 2026. According to performer Jami Leavit, who joined after completing the class, improv offered more than just laughs—it became a tool for personal growth. “As I was running for office, I needed a creative outlet and one that could also help me overcome my fear of public speaking,” she shared. “It’s been a fantastic experience—learning the skill and letting go while playing has been great for my mental health. The best part has been connecting with other people in the improv community who share the same interest!”

Education and community engagement are at the heart of So U’s mission. Their team frequently emphasizes that their goal isn’t just to perform but to create a thriving improv culture in Southern Utah—one where anyone can step on stage, learn to think fast, and simply have fun.

And if you can’t make it in November, don’t worry—there’s more laughter ahead. The group’s Christmas shows are already scheduled for December 6 and 20, featuring a Special Guest Host and a lineup of holiday-themed improv antics you won’t want to miss.

So U Comedy Theater continues to prove that laughter really is the best medicine, especially during the busiest time of the year. Mark your calendar, grab your friends, and prepare to laugh off your holiday stress with an evening of spontaneous, family-friendly (or delightfully unfiltered) fun.
