191 Toole

Located in the heart of Tucson’s historic Warehouse District, 191 Toole is a cornerstone of the city’s vibrant downtown arts scene. Originally built in 1923 as a railroad transfer station, this converted industrial space is now operated by the non-profit Rialto Theatre Foundation. The venue offers an intimate atmosphere characterized by its minimalist brick walls, providing a focused setting where the audience feels connected to the stage. It serves as a versatile home that bridges the gap between underground charm and professional production. While the venue is a hub for live music, it has earned a reputation as a premier destination for alternative and touring comedy. 191 Toole regularly hosts acclaimed stand-up acts, having welcomed notable performers such as Adam Cayton-Holland, Gabriel Rutledge, and Samuel J. Comroe. Whether you are catching a rising star or a seasoned veteran, the venue’s eclectic programming and community-driven mission make it an essential stop for any comedy lover in Tucson.
