Stand-up comedy show where the performer builds sets around original material and crowd work.
Fuck This Week is taking over Fallout Theater for a long run that stretches through the 2026-2027 season. It's an improv comedy show that works off audience prompts, spinning whatever you throw at it into goofy gold on the fly. If you've never seen improv, that's the gist: the performers don't have a script, so the night changes depending on what the crowd brings to the table.
Running the show is a touring comedian and stand-up performer who builds his sets around original material and crowd work, playing comedy clubs and theaters. He's the one steering the ship, and the whole thing is billed as Fuck This Week - A Comedic Exploration of Your Shit-Ass Week. The title gives you a good sense of where the humor lands—it's about the small, frustrating, absurd things that make a week feel like a slog, and laughing at them with a room full of people who get it.
Because it's a residency rather than a one-off, you've got plenty of dates to choose from. The run kicks off August 3 and continues August 24, August 31, September 7, September 14, October 5, October 12, October 19, November 16, November 23, and November 30. Every single one starts at 8 PM, so you can pick a Monday night that works for you without having to check a different time for every date.
