What Events Are Planned This Week in Pahrump

New year, new adventures. Check this out:

Improv class will be held every Tuesday at the Calvada Theater. A mere $10 gets you in the door for drop-in Improv instruction and practice from 6 to 8 p.m., then the actors serve as the audience until 10 p.m. “No pressure, no scripts; just games, laughs, and good chaos. Come play. Come watch. Or do both,” says Oliver Jones. “Bring a friend. Or become one on stage.”

The Pahrump Theatre Company aims to become the premier theatrical and entertainment hub in Pahrump, Nevada. Their focus is on providing high-quality theatrical productions that cater to the community’s interests, including modern, new works, and classic plays. Ready to become a part of this?
