Fun Scrubs

Call a code blue! Fun Scrubs by Christopher James is the hilariously unfiltered tale of swapping boardrooms for bedpans. In this one-person stand-up show, Chris dives scalpel-deep into the chaos of a late career change into nursing, where the only thing more shocking than bodily fluids (none of them his) is the pay cut.

With razor-sharp wit and a pulse on the real pressure of patient care, Fun Scrubs tackles the absurd, the heartfelt, and the downright traumatic with big laughs and even bigger heart. It’s a love letter to the unsung heroes of healthcare, told by a guy who’s lived both the corporate dream and the night shift scream. This fast-paced show hilariously spotlights the overlooked emotional toll, the bizarre workplace rituals, and the baffling undervaluation of nurses—those actual life-saving legends.

Equal parts heartfelt and side-splitting, Fun Scrubs pulls back the privacy curtain on modern healthcare and asks the real question: why does a guy with a stethoscope earn less than a guy with a stapler? Anyone who’s ever wanted to cry in a utility closet —this one’s for you.
