Shadowbox Live has been entertaining Columbus since 1988 as the largest resident ensemble theater company in America. Their original sketch comedy rock-n-roll shows are ALWAYS entertaining, usually slightly raunchy, and are a great option for dates, friend outings, and more!
Think SNL, but local (and better, imo)! And now It’s the time of the year for the Shadowbox Live Holiday Season!
They’ve been bringing the holiday spirit each year with holiday shows that you don’t want to miss this Christmas season.
Shadowbox Safety Plans
The theatre has safety plans in place so the show can go on! Some of the big changes include:
-Audience members must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test taken within the past 72 hours, along with a government-issued photo ID. Audience members may also show pictures of these materials on their mobile device.
-Masks must be worn, except while seated
-Tickets purchased in groups of 2 or 4 only; separate groups will not be seated together
-Capacity has been reduced to 30%
Tickets make great gifts or holiday outings. They have two awesome shows with tickets available for purchase. Continue reading for details!

Shadowbox definitely strays from what you may consider clean. It would depend on when you are coming and what type of activities you’re interested in. Funny Bone Comedy Club sometimes has “clean” comedians performing, or there are a variety of other activities you may enjoy. There are holiday lights trolley tours, other performing arts, painting studios, dueling piano bar, etc. If you want more guidance, email info@columbusonthecheap.com with more specifics and I can try to help.
