Pick of the Day: R. U. Afraid of the 90’s? (near LA) 10/21

If you’re already trying to make plans to keep all of October spooky, know that there’s plenty of comedy that can (and very much should fill your schedule). It’ll range from anything where comedians will dress up from comedians of yesteryear to scary storytelling to revisiting the sort of nostalgia that gives you the thing that was the cornerstone of R.L. Stine’s legacy, goosebumps.

On Friday, October 21st at 8:30PM, Teresa Lee will actually lead such a creepy journey back to the cringiest things from over 20 years ago with many of LA’s funniest folks at a new LA venue that’s both literally and figuratively “out there”, Altadena’s Public Displays of Altadena.

So far, Alex Song-Xia, Brodie Reed, Bri Pruett, Budd Diaz, Charles Gould, Danielle Perez, Dana Donnelly, Eli Olsberg, Kat Toledo, Liz Magee, Madison Shepard, and Will Weldon dare to be on this bill.

It ought to be a collective night of spooking yourself over how you might have possibly convinced that JNCO jeans were ever a good idea.

Also, if you show up in costume, you’ll get a free drink, and there might just be a 90s dance party following the show.

All of this show will only run you $10 per ticket. So go get ’em here.

As this is indeed AAPI Heritage Month and there very much still is a surge of anti-Asian hate crimes and, despite the vastness and diversity of the Asian identity, the AAPI identity has been vastly underrepresented no matter what month it is, it might behoove you to get the specific AAPI perspective on things.

The upcoming Asian Comedy Festival has put together a very special panel that will dive into what the winding road of Asian Amerian/Pacific Islander comedy folks working in TV is really like.

For this particular discussion, they’ll be virtually assembling:

Mike Cabellon (Mr. Mayor)
Alex Song-Xia (Rick and Morty)
Mark Kramer (Last Week Tonight)
Nik Dodani (Dear Evan Hansen)
Rekha Shankar (Animaniacs)
Sachi Ezura (VP of Adult Animation, ViacomCBS)
Moderator: Otter Lee (Tooning Out the News)

The Asian Comedy Festival Industry Panel is set to go live on Sun. May 23rd at 5PM PT/8PM ET via Bonfire Live. Tickets are only $5 and you very, very much should go get them here.
