Best Comedy Theatre in San Francisco

A John Waters Christmas at Great American Music Hall

A John Waters Christmas

John Waters loves Christmas, and he wants you to know. The legendary cult-filmmaker takes to the stage with his traditional one-man monologue, extolling the virtues of everyone's favorite holiday, from offering advice on Christmas films and music to asking the important questions you've always wanted to be answered by the people's pervert, such as 'Is Santa erotic?'

Clue at Curran Theatre

Clue

Based on the board game and the cult movie classic, Clue is a fiendishly funny murder mystery, where everyone is a suspect, and the next potential victim! Featuring all the colorful characters from the game, from Colonel Mustard to Mrs. White, Clue leads us from room to room in a whirlwind of slapstick comedy and real theatrical verve.

The Play That Goes Wrong at San Francisco Playhouse

The Play That Goes Wrong

The runaway comedy success that hails from the multi-award-winning Mischief Theatre, this Broadway and West End hit finally lands in San Franciso, ready to unravel as it kicks off the San Francisco Playhouse's 2024/25 season! Following the unlucky fortunes of an amateur dramatic society as they attempt to stage a murder mystery, this laugh-out-loud play is a madcap adventure that channels the zaniness of Monty Python with the intricacy of Sherlock Holmes. Now celebrating over a decade of going wrong on both sides of the Atlantic, don't miss your chance to enjoy this much anticipated West Coast staging, directed by SFP's own Susi Damilano.
