From our audiences

Absolutely perfect date night or night out with friends. It was the highlight of our trip to Vancouver, hands down. I went with my husband and a friend and we were all laughing so hard we were crying. Worth every penny. Can’t wait to come back on our next trip there!

Always a fantastic time! Love the combo of talented players, creative structure (lots of fun games), and a great theatre venue. Go early to enjoy the lounge – it is one of the nicest patios on Granville Island.

Loads of laughs at Theatresports night! Hadn’t been in many years. If you’re in the mood for watching creative thinkers act out skits interacting with the audience whether it’s a date night, friends night out, celebrating a birthday… I recommend you check this out!!! Funcouver is here.
