The famous Groundlings Theater is where many stars and comedians got their start. Celebrities like Lisa Kudrow, Pee Wee Herman, Elvira, Pat Morita, Chris Farley, Kathy Griffin, Jon Lovitz and Phil Hartman all went on to make great careers after working here. Many of the Groundlings have moved to spots on Saturday Night Live and Mad TV. The company has been open since 1974. The improv show "Cookin' With Gas" on Thursday nights is a landmark feature of the theater, where improv veterans take the stage with rookies. It is highly recommended that you purchase tickets in advance.

You never know whats going to come your way when you go for one of these shows at The Groundlings. The audience knows nothing about the performance before-hand; neither the artiste nor the kind of act it is going to be. This element of surprise is what has made this weekly show so popular. Don't be surprised if you see Will Ferrell or Phil LaMarr walk on to stage! The show takes place on every Friday.
