MAKE EM LAUGH, OKLAHOMA IS BACK!

Celebrate Oklahoma's sense of humor as more than 75 performers share their talent across three days in downtown Tulsa. Come be blown away by Oklahoma's talent.

Our festival would not be possible without support from PRK Motors, Meadow Market Books, Geek Ink Tattoos N Piercings, David Lackey Media, Soul Path Leadership, the Black Cat Theatre Cafe, Cody Mayo Studios and Noisetown Tulsa. Thank you to our sponsors and thank YOU for supporting Third Space!

THIRD SPACE IS GETTING A PLACE! While assessing supplies and programming plans for 2027, we realized it was past time for Third Space to get, at minimum, an office.

The perfect opportunity has arrived, and we're getting ready to move into our own spot!

Rent ain't cheap, and we need time before we can start doing shows - if you feel called to help us create a spot for accessible comedy education and more opportunities for artists, donate to our fundraising campaign HERE!

Welcome to Third Space!

We're an improv-centered theater education collective, passionate about collaborative art, community-focused endeavors, and empowering Tulsa-area creatives. We're also the proud producers of the Make Em Laugh, OK festival, featuring incredibly sketch, improv and stand up comedy in October!

Founded in May of 2023, our players are committed to providing quality, engaging, and fun workshops and classes to bring improv to everyone.

Interested in supporting our mission? Your donation is tax-deductible, and we accept cash and card donations.

FREE Thursday Open Plays

Select Thursdays, 7-8:30pm, TCC Center for Creativity (910 S Boston Ave)
