41 Funny Theatre Puns & Jokes Worthy Of The Spotlight

A stage before a show of theatre puns and jokes

Ah yes, nothing like a dying industry to make fun of. Theatre jokes and puns are still funny now, but it won't be long until kids are asking you "what's a movie theatre?" and giving you a complete existential crisis.

The smell of old popcorn (or the stinky person sitting next to you). The cramped seats. The people who always talk during important parts of the story.

There's really nothing like it, so enjoy these while you can.

While it's kind of random, there are plenty of clever puns and jokes about the theatre out there. We were actually pretty surprised!

That made putting this list together a lot of fun.

Enjoy!
