Here's whats coming TO MADLAB...
Ticket Links Are Beneath Each Production Listing, or through the ticket button in the menu above
MadLab Theatre will be going dark for the month of January—not because we lack stories to tell or productions to share, but because we’re embarking on an exciting new chapter in our journey. We are thrilled to announce the start of our quarter-of-a-million-dollar renovations to transform the theater and elevate your experience, thanks to generous capital improvement funding from the Greater Columbus Arts Council. (And yes, a partial match from us. So please consider making a donation if you would like to assist our evolution! You'll find a Donate button at the top of this page.)
The first phase of this ambitious project focuses on our black box theatre space, where so many incredible productions have come to life. These updates will modernize the space, enhance comfort, and ensure we can continue to push the boundaries of creativity and storytelling.
Our goal is to bring you one of the best theater experiences in Central Ohio. We’re investing in the future of MadLab, so when the improvements are completed over the next months you’ll find a space that matches the quality of the work we create and the passion we have for serving our community. Thank you for your continued support, and we can’t wait to share the new and improved MadLab with you soon!

Formed in 1993, FFN is Columbus's longest-running improv comedy troupe. The long-form group takes audience suggestions (anything from simple variables to real-life stories) and uses them to create original and (hopefully) hilarious plays, all made up on the spot. No two shows are alike!
In Date Night, FFN will tell you a story of love…YOUR story of love! Based on your best and worst true-life romantic stories, the troupe will act out your tales from their point of view. New characters! New circumstances! Maybe an alien or two! Who knows? You'll have to come to the show to find out!

@ THE LAB MARCH 27-29: THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY'S BLACK BOX SERIES PRESENTS:
REVOLT. SHE SAID. REVOLT AGAIN.
by Alice Birch
REVOLT. SHE SAID. REVOLT AGAIN.
by Alice Birch
Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again., by award-winning playwright and screenwriter Alice Birch, is a scathing, darkly comedic play which challenges us all to evaluate the language we use to talk about women’s lives, bodies, and sexualities. Experimental in form and urgent in message, the play and the acting company do not behave in this fervent and ferocious piece of new work. Angry, passionate and compelling, the voices of Revolt are needed now more than ever.
Please Note: Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again. features moments of staged violence, blood, vomit, strong language, sexual content, and adult situations. The play also speaks candidly about violence toward women.
