Now that the winter is getting a little less chilly, by LA standards of course, many a show that normally takes advantage of LA’s picturesque weather, kind of like the kind we have today on Feb. 10th, are coming out of the wood work.

Namely, one of the best house comedy shows in LA, The Big One, in Highland Park, is coming back for its first go-around of 2023. They aren’t messing around with the line-up either as Carly Kane and Meg Indurti will be joined by Aparna Nancherla, Felicia Folkes, Brandi Denise, Lili Michelle, Meeki Leeper, and Ahamed Weinberg. An entire fleet of fold-up lawn-chairs and the perfect back patio for a house comedy show will be brought out next Fri. Feb. 17th at 7PM.

Tickets are only $15 and you better snag them here before they sell out.

It has been quite some time since one of LA’s very best house shows has happened. For those not in the know, that would The Big One tucked away in an almost too perfect backyard in Highland Park thanks to the efforts of Meg Indurti, Broderick Baumann, and Carly Kane.

It has been several months since they’ve broken out their gorgeously hand painted backdrop, lawn chairs, and utilized the bar that was already there when they moved in, but their latest edition of Big One is coming just a month from now with a marvelous line-up of LA’s (or elsewhere’s) very best comics that you may or may not know. For 11/4, that will include Langston Kerman, Skyler Higley, Lynn Maleh, Bri Giger, Sam Oh, and host Ellen Harrold.

You better go get tickets for $15 right now before it sells out here.

The Eastside of Los Angeles is already a treasure trove of indie comedy shows. A lot of that has to do with the neighborhoods of Highland Park to Los Feliz being considered some of the city’s cooler neighborhoods and the fact that so many comedians actually reside in that part of LA county.

Thus, Highland Park and anyone around those parts are getting one more comedy/variety show you shouldn’t miss. Rainbow Fish @ The Goldfish will not only give you LA’s best comedians, but give you some wondrous drag, and music to boot thanks to the delightful Eastside denizen and a somewhat newer, but still amazing addition to the LA comedy scene, Carly Kane.

This inaugural edition will feature:

Music From Grace Kinter & Lando Chill
Comedy From Nori Reed, Jenson Titus & Carly Kane
Drag From Joella Perry

If you don’t want welcoming a new show into LA, mark down Wed. Aug. 31st, 7:30PM and go get your tickets for $11.33 right here right now.

Pick of the Day: Late Late Breakfast (in LA) 8/29

Whether you need a complete distraction from the ever more hellish reality we live in or just a jolt of unfettered absurdity, there is nothing quite like Late Late Breakfast to serve those in plentiful supply to all of our heart’s content.

Late Late Breakfast was forged several years ago by Tyler Jackson and Danny Maupin as an alternative to any sort of traditional comedy show by challenging stand-up comedians to do their act while a randomly selected ridiculous task was assigned to them. That could be anything from embodying the seven deadly sins throughout their set to being interrupted by a karaoke chorus of Sweet Caroline from the audience. It’s controlled chaos, perhaps, in its finest form.

It has been quite some time since they’ve mounted an edition of Late Late Breakfast in LA, but the Yard Theater will be letting this bonkers show bring some life to next Monday night on Aug. 29th at 9PM. Having to run through a gauntlet of abject silliness will be a very, very fine collection of LA comedians including The Shrimp Boys, Curtis Cook, Molly Kearney, Maggie Maye, Brodie Reed, Bailey Norton, Jane Harrison, Jake Noll, and Carly Kane with Tyler Jackson and Sammy Mowrey presiding over all the tomfoolery.

Tickets are only $5 and you really ought to go get tickets and have a Monday night to remember here.

Pick of the Day: Centipede (in LA) 12/1

Whether it be “experimental comedy”, “dare comedy”, or whatever else you want to call it, we love people swinging for the fences in comedy.

So, Tyler Jackson, who has a penchant for such a thing as evidenced by being the co-ring leader behind Late Late Breakfast, is tossing up another high concept show to fly, this time having comedians on the show pick the comedian following them and the subsequent comedian having to blur their set into their own (i.e. like a parts of an infamous ‘human centipede’). Taking on this challenge will be a very capable and fun bunch of Molly Kearney, Carly Kane, Kristin Wallace, Annie Paradis, and Camirin Farmer.

We believe, no matter what happens here, this ought to be a big hysterical hoot of an evening.

This very first Centipede in LA is set for Wed. Dec. 1st at 9PM PT. Tickets are $10 and you really ought to get them here.

Jul. 2nd at 7PM PT thanks to Meg Indurti, Molly Kearney, Carly Kane, and Broderick Baumann. Their first line-up will that includes lots of folks from the Paris of the Midwest that have made their home West including Holmes Holmes, Will Miles, and Sarah Squirm.

Tickets are $15. Address will be provided upon purchase. Go get ’em here.
