Pick of the Day: Schtick or Treat (in LA) 10/31

There is kind of no better comedy Halloween tradition than Matt Ruby and Mark Normand‘s Schtick or Treat. A cavalcade of your favorite comedians of all kinds convene as their favorite comedians, in full costume, to do their most faithful rendition of them as a Halloween tribute (probably). Lasting well over a decade and playing multiple cities including NYC and LA at the same appointed spooky time of the year, Schtick or Treat, was a highlight of not only the Halloween season, but of the comedy scene for the whole year.

Thus, we’re (yes, full disclosure, we have a hand in this) bringing it back from the dead to be yet another very special night of uncanny night with jokes conjured from beyond the mic (or simply just remembered from a signature album or special).

Thus far, the comedy witching hour is summoning:

James Adomian

Barbara Gray

Sammy Mowrey

Curtis Cook

Paul Danke

Danny Sellers

Tyler Jackson

Ellory Smith

Blake Rosier

Jessica Michelle Singer

Simon Gibson

Mike Bridenstine

Andres Parada

Lorena Russi

Roxanne Acree

Maxi Witrak

with many more TBA!

This newly revived Schtick or Treat is set for the actual night of Halloween, Tues. 10/31 at 10PM at the wondrous Lyric Hyperion in Silverlake.

Tickets are only $15 and it’s, for our money, the best bet on Halloween. Go get tickets already right here.
