Eric Jennifer (one of Hal Rudnick’s most charming characters) is throwing an early 4th of July party/show this weekend, probably because he couldn’t find someone to give him a ride to an actual party happening on the 4th.

So, watch him and some friends(?) do a “good job” at UCB Franklin this Saturday night.

Tickets are $5 and you can (and should) get them here.

Putting together plans for the 4th of July can be burdensome. In LA, as so many people live in such a big area, the Fourth gets even more confounded as there are almost too many celebrations around the entire Greater LA area.

In The 4th, Andre Hyland falls victim to trying to throw a 4th of July BBQ in Los Angeles and encountering the wrong thing at every turn.

See for yourself in the trailer, then look for it in a theater near you on July 21st.
