• Zenobia Live at Outpost Performance Space

    UNM Arealive musicDetails

    Zenobia takes the stage at Outpost, one of the few rooms on Central built from the ground up for listening rather than drinking. The space runs a tight ship on sound and sightlines, so wherever you land in the room, you're actually going to hear this.

  • Live Improv Comedy

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    Improv comedy night at The Box, co-presented with Improv Theatre, meaning the performers likely have actual training and structure behind them rather than a loose open-mic feel. The Box is a small, close-quarters room where there's no real bad seat, but there's also nowhere to hide if you get pulled into a bit. Tickets are...

  • Cardboard Playhouse Quiz Show

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    In The Box Annex is bringing their quiz show format into The Box Performance Space, a black-box theater on Central that tends to reward audiences willing to play along with something a little weirder than a bar trivia night. The 45-minute runtime is short by design, so this is probably one piece of a longer...

  • Blue Show Improv Comedy

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    Improv Theatre brings its Blue Show to The Box, an hour of unscripted comedy built entirely in the moment by a cast that has been doing this long enough to make the hard stuff look casual. The Box is a small, focused room where the audience is close enough to the performers that your reactions...

  • Improvised Shakespeare at The Box

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreatheaterTickets

    The performers take audience suggestions and build an entire Shakespearean play on the spot, iambic pentameter and all. The Box is a small black-box room where the audience sits close enough to watch the improvisers' faces when a scene goes sideways, which is half the pleasure. At 45 minutes, it's a tight enough window that...

  • Comedy Night at Gaia’s Kava Root

    Gaia's Kava Root
    UNM AreacomedyDetails

    Stand-up comedy at one of the more low-key spots on this stretch of Central, where the bar runs kava and kratom instead of well drinks. The room is intimate enough...

  • Live Improv Comedy at The Box

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    A live improv comedy show at The Box, the UNM Area's most reliably weird little black-box room on Central. The space is small enough that the performers will absolutely make...

  • Your Rong! Comedy Debate Show

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    A comedy debate show presented by In the Box Annex, running just an hour at a genuinely odd hour of the night, which tells you something about the crowd it's built for. The Box is a small, purposeful room that rewards the format, close enough to the stage that a bad argument lands right in...

  • Late-Night Improv Comedy

    Outpost Performance Space
    UNM AreacomedyTickets

    Long-form improv at The Box means no sketch templates, no safety net, just a troupe building something from nothing in real time over a sustained run. The Box keeps its house tight, so you'll be close enough to see the performers' faces when a scene goes somewhere nobody planned. A ticket link exists, so grab...
