Rising comedy sensation Zach Rushing is set to bring his hilarious standup routine to the Tempe Improv on September 25, 2025, promising an unforgettable night of laughter for Ahwatukee, AZ comedy fans. Rushing, who has been earning rave five-star reviews across the country, most recently left audiences in stitches at the Forbes Theater in Buffalo, NY. According to attendee Larry, the experience was nothing short of spectacular, with non-stop laughter “from the time I sat down till the time I walked out the door.”
The upcoming Tempe performance marks Rushing’s first appearance at the iconic Arizona comedy venue, and early buzz suggests tickets will sell out quickly based on his rapidly growing reputation.

The comedian’s merchandise will also be available at what previous attendees have described as “reasonable prices,” allowing fans to take home a memento of the laugh-filled evening without breaking the bank.
The Tempe Improv venue itself adds to the appeal of the event, offering a comfortable and accessible experience for comedy lovers. With “a lot of parking” available and the venue situated near “plenty of bars and restaurants,” attendees can make a complete night out of the experience. The Improv’s intimate setting creates the perfect atmosphere for comedy, ensuring everyone feels connected to the performance. As Larry warned in his enthusiastic review following the Buffalo show, “If you ever had the chance to see Zach, you better get tickets fast” – advice that seems particularly relevant given Rushing’s growing popularity.
