We’re breaking in 191 Toole on 3/14 with The Wheel of Misfortune! Thoughts & prayers. 🎡🙏😬
We’re moving to 191 Toole – bigger space, FREE parking, same chaos. Come join the insanity! Saturday March 14! 🏠💥🚗✨
New Home. Same Chaos. 🏠💥
Retro Game Show Night – Tucson’s longest-running live comedy show – is making its grand entrance at 191 Toole on Saturday, March 14 🎉… and we’re breaking in the new venue with The Wheel of Misfortune 🎡. It’s our Wheel of Fortune parody where the wheel is shady 😈, the letters are stingy 🔤, and your confidence will be tested in public 😅.
Hosted by Chatty Kathee 💋 with Swish Manley “assisting” 📋😬 (in the same way a Roomba “helps” with furniture). And because this is our inaugural night at 191 Toole, we’re bringing a full all-star lineup 🌟: Fulta Burstyn, Nelmar 27 McGee, Parker, and Fireman Todd 🔥🚒
🗓️ Sat, Mar 14
📍 191 Toole (one block west of Hotel Congress, right after 6th Ave on Toole)
🕕 Doors 6pm | 🕖 Show 7pm
🎟️ Tickets $15 – online at GoldenGravy.com, at the Rialto Theatre box office, or at the door until we sell out ⚡
💦 Splash Zone guaranteed when you buy online or at the Rialto box office (first several rows) 😬😂
🔞 21+
🅿️ And yes: TONS of FREE parking right next to the building 🚗🙌✨ (we know… wild)
Follow @retrogameshownight on FB + IG 📲✨
🤩 Don’t miss Fulta and her fabulous friends this Sunday! 🤩🚨 PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Your Sunday afternoon is about to get upgraded. 🚨
Fulta & Friends Cocktail Cabaret is BACK at the Temple Lounge, hosted by the one and only Fulta Burstyn – grand dame drag royalty, professional glam menace, and a woman who has never met a spotlight she didn’t deserve. 💋👑
She’s bringing a lineup so good it should come with a warning label:
🎹 Chris Tackett on piano (making talent look effortless, which is frankly rude)
🎤 Robin Bousel + Sarah Llewellyn serving vocals, face, and feelings
💃 Na-il Ali Emmert delivering dance that will make your core feel personally attacked
🎧 And yes, DJ Bossy Bottom is on deck keeping the grooves going all afternoon because quiet is for tax season.
📅 Sunday, March 8, 2026
🕒 3–6pm
📍 Temple of Music and Art Lounge • 330 S. Scott Ave • Downtown Tucson
🔞 18+
🎟️ Tickets: GoldenGravy.com or at the door (if you enjoy living dangerously)
Arrive early. Order a cocktail. Leave with a new obsession and at least one questionable decision you fully stand by.
Thank you, Arizona Daily Star!

Skate for SAAF at Rainbow Rollers on Wed Mar 11! 🛼🏳️🌈Dust off those skates, Tucson – it’s time to roll cute for a cause. 🛼🌈
Rainbow Rollers glides back into Skate Country on east 22nd St on Wednesday, March 11 from 6-8pm, and this round we’re benefiting the fabulous folks at Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation (saaf.org) – a beloved community nonprofit doing vital work right here in Southern Arizona.
It’s just $5 admission and $5 skate rental (if you don’t bring your own wheels), and partial proceeds support SAAF’s incredible programs.
Family-friendly. All are welcome. Zero attitude required (unless it’s a fun attitude!).
Come skate, socialize, and serve community realness – one lap at a time.

2/7/2026 – It was Retro’s last performance at Club Congress, the beginning of our 15th season. We are grateful to have spent so many nights laughing our asses off at Hotel Congress. Thank You, Congress! Win, Lose or Draw Badly went off the rails quickly, complete with irregular haircuts and Chatty Kathee vacuuming glitter! Please mark your calendars as we embark on a new space! Saturday March 14th: 191 Toole Ave, Tucson. There’s PARKING! We LOVE that! Photos: @Jimmer O’Rourke
Something huge is about to happen to Retro Game Show Night… and we’re not saying a word yet. 😈
We’ll drop the big news live at our Feb 7 show – so if you like being first (and being smug about it), make plans to be there.
