What follows is the world's largest collection (that I know of) of tech theatre humor. These jokes are used by everyone involved in productions with exception to the actors (too busy working on other personalities to tell jokes?) and ushers (unskilled labor, not a 'family').
 
I cannot take credit for the writing of much of this material. I have given credit to those who I am reasonably sure are the original authors, but this cannot be done perfectly. All pieces posted here are posted only WITH permission of the credited source.
