“Leave the younger kids at home and make this a fun date night instead.”
Broken Records Musical Improv is a live comedy show where performers and a musician invent a brand-new musical on the spot using audience suggestions. Because the show relies on quick-witted, unscripted humor, it is best suited for high schoolers and adults rather than younger children. The performance takes place at Mettlesome Theater in Durham, which offers nearby street parking and local dining options if you want to grab dinner beforehand. Tickets should be purchased in advance online, as the intimate theater space can fill up quickly. This event makes a fantastic weekend pick because it offers a lighthearted, spontaneous night out close to downtown Durham. It is an easy way to support the local performing arts scene while enjoying a laugh with your partner or older kids.
