Theater doesn't get any more live than this
Un-Scripted Theater Company creates smart, innovative, and entertaining improvised theater that delights audiences and advances the craft and art of improvisation.
Can't leave the house to meet your match? Neither can our daters! It's 2021 and we're in a pandemic! Needless to say, online dating and the search for love is looking a little different these days...but the good folks at the Un-Scripted Theater Company have some improv fun up their sleeves for the most hilariously romantic Valentine's Day you can have at home.
Our theater, like all live theater, has been devastated by the coronavirus pandemic. We know there are many causes and organizations that need and deserve your support during these uncertain times. If you’re able, please consider supporting our GoFundMe campaign to help our nonprofit theater company. Thank you.
You can still catch our shows even if you can’t come to the theater. Find more video on our YouTube channel.

We stand in solidarity with all who are angry, exhausted, and in pain over the recent murders of Ahmaud Arbery, shot while jogging in February; Breonna Taylor, shot in her home in March by Louisville police officers; and George Floyd, killed last week by a police officer in Minneapolis. While these murders affect us all, we know that for our black community members, the pain and trauma are especially deep.
It is time for both reflection and action.
We have long known that the San Francisco improv community, Un-Scripted included, is not representative of the diversity of the Bay Area. Stories are missing from our stage that are crying out to be told. We are committed to re-doubling our efforts to include more voices in our theater.
We are an organization that is dedicated to hearing feedback, even if it challenges us. We invite our community to let us know where we have fallen short, and how we can do better.
But intentions, commitments, and hope are not the same as strategy. In our next communication, we will outline concrete steps Un-Scripted will take to fight injustice and promote antiracism and equity. In the meantime, our staff and Board of Directors have committed to immediate online trainings with SURJ (Showing Up for Racial Justice) Bay Area as a first step towards understanding and avoiding the type of gatekeeping that privilege brings to the improv stage.
We know a lot of you are looking for ways to step up right now. If you are looking for organizations working for justice for BIPOC, we recommend a few below. Un-Scripted Theater Company ensemble members will match any funds donated to these organizations up to $2000. Please email your donation receipt to us@un-scripted.com if you would like your donation matched.
We stand together with all those fighting to end systemic racial oppression.
We are listening.
