What is...Supporting Live Local Comedy?

Arcade's Executive Director is on Jeopardy! on 5/13/2025 and we're using her trivia skills to raise money for comedy!

A fundraising campaign for Arcade Comedy Theater

Hi, I am Katie Tarara, Executive Director of Arcade Comedy Theater.

I'm appearing as a contestant on Jeopardy! on Tuesday, May 13, and to celebrate, I’m raising money for Arcade Comedy Theater, a nonprofit that brings live comedy and arts education to Pittsburgh.

Here’s the game plan:
There are 61 possible correct answers on Jeopardy! — and I’m aiming to raise $100 per answer I get right

Jeopardy rules say I can’t reveal how many I got correct before the episode airs… so you have two options:

  • Go big: Donate $61 now and assume I got them all right (a perfect game, naturally!)

  • Play along: Pledge any amount per correct answer, and after the show airs, I’ll share how many I got right so you can complete your donation.

Your support helps Arcade continue to inspire joy and nurture community by connecting artists and audiences with the dynamic artform of comedy — and makes my time on TV even more meaningful.

Thank you!
