    January 18 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
    The Elysian 1944 Riverside Drive, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Clowns will be art! They will be still pantings creating nearly identical live replicas of famous artworks, all while receiving the admiration of the audience and the opportunity to be auctioned off. But with any clown show, things go wrong and the clowns could move around and change the composition of the works. Featuring: Helene Park (@helen_blerk) Elizabeth Benjamin (@elizabeth_ben) Dev Sanclemente (@bigdevsupreme) Mike Rose (@themikerose) Sylvie Wang (@sylvieliningsplaybook) Sam Gibson (@sjgeez) Kevin Chu (@annoyingtwinkofficial) Kami Dimitrova (@kamiindahouse) Danelle Von […]

    February 1 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
    UCB Franklin 5919 Franklin Avenue, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    In UCB’s Pilot Season, veteran comedy TV writers take the audience’s suggestion of a show title, and, on the spot, develop a pilot for a brand new show.

    February 4 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
    Caveat 21 A Clinton Street, New York, NY, United States

    Next Slide Please invites comedians to prepare and present PowerPoints about whatever they want.
