Phoenix, Arizona
North Phoenix comedy theater with themed Saturday drag brunches
Desert Ridge Improv is a comedy theater on North Tatum Boulevard in north Phoenix's Desert Ridge, with stand-up, magic and special events on its calendar. Most Saturdays it runs a themed drag brunch, from Hocus Pocus and Prince vs. Michael Jackson to Shrek and Taylor Swift tributes, alongside occasional drag nights and drag bingo. It's a Gay Friendly comedy club rather than a gay bar, and the Saturday drag brunches are the reason to go.
