Very few comedians are as studious about the actual art form as one Sara Schaefer, a very, very splendid comedian herself. Schaefer herself has done spectacular work in almost every discipline of comedy and almost on every level and now, with that wealth of experience and acclaim, is doing a perfectly biting satirical solo show on “how to become a comedian”.

Called, “Going Up”, Sara is currently developing this show that piercingly examines the scaffolding that the art form of comedy has propped up for itself and does what does comedy best, point out the most ridiculous parts of it for the purpose of making people laugh (see Sara’s lesson on anti-comedy for further understanding).

Going Up with Sara Schaefer is currently a work in progress show that has two upcoming dates at The Elysian on Fri. Jun. 17th and Mon. Jun. 20th at 6PM PT. Best of all, you can revel in Sara’s reckoning with stand-up comedy on those dates for FREE.
