Fun Night at the Rialto Theatre
We are changing things up for Fun Night! We will kick things off with a dinner at Gaslight Social – a perfect setting to relax, connect, and enjoy great food with fellow members. From there we’ll take a short walk to one of Casper’s most iconic landmarks, the historic Rialto theater, where we’ve reserved the venue for a private comedy show you won’t forget.
John Caparulo is known for his sharp, relatable humor and has built a strong following through stand-up specials and television appearances. You may recognize him from shows like Chelsea Lately or his appearances on The Tonight Show. His comedy draws from everyday life, work and relationships – delivered with style that is both laid-back and hilariously on point.
