The monthly solo character comedy reunion-themed show Reunion is always a fantastic dive into some parallel universe and a great showcase of many of LA’s best characters.

As Halloween is right around the corner, they’ll be doing a special “Hell” edition where people reunite to “remember their death day”. With no irony at all, this sounds like a hell of a good time (pun intended).

On the line-up is:
David Bly
Leslie Collins
Laura McDonald
John Milhiser
Mike O’Gorman
Hosts Leah Rudick & Steve Soroka

Admission is free, but the good folks at Reunion ask for a $5 suggested donation with all proceeds going to Human Rights Campaign.

bri pruett, comedy show, echo park, los angeles, solo show

Ever since Bri Pruett arrived in LA, her comedy and infectious upbeat energy has really charmed us (and the LA scene as well).

That’s why we’re excited to hear that she’ll be doing a run of her own show, STELLAR, as part of The Bootleg Theater’s 2nd Solo Queens Fest. It’ll be a funny evening full of body positivity, sex positivity, and more as related to relationships/dating all underscored with a “Sade-heavy soundtrack.”

The show has multiple dates between Oct. 26th-Nov. 18th and tickets are $15-$20. Go find specific times and get your tickets here.

Starting tomorrow and going through the whole weekend, the maiden voyage of the Adult Swim Festival will kick off just East of DTLA.

Few comedy shows party quite as hard as Late Late Breakfast with hosts Danny Maupin and Tyler Jackson and that’s why it’s special the few times that they come around to LA every year.

This Saturday, October 6th is one of those special days where uber-silly challenges meet stand-up during “late late breakfast” (that would make it “late brunch” hours too, we guess?).

Debra DiGiovanni, Kara Klenk, Jordan Doll, Phoebe Bottoms, Simon Gibson, Amy Silverberg, Langston Kerman, Will Miles, Sasheer Zamata, and Jackie Kashian will all be joining in the controlled chaos at 5PM (doors open at 4PM if you want to get a good seat) at Silverlake Lounge (2906 W Sunset Blvd).

Admission is free, but donations will be accepted. Get more details here.

That can change next week when Match Point! Comedy debuts and will present the likes of Aparna Nancherla, Nick Vatterott, and Ben Brandfon and their comedy on a Silverlake tennis court along with hosts Gil, Isaac, and Luke.

We would hope by now that you have come to watch, enjoy, and love Lindsay Ames’ My Diary show as we have.

Lindsay is doing a very special edition of her show this month that ups the ante of performers sharing personal diaries entries by getting them “baked” before they take the stage. We can’t speak for the line-up reading their most personal secrets from the younger days while high, but this ought to be a great time for any and all in attendance.

Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. Go get them here.

Between hosts Johnny Pemberton and DJ Douggpound and guests on this inaugural show’s line-up Howard Kremer and Brent Weinbach, there have been so much of their comedic work that has seen the light of day and enjoyed thoroughly by many.

Of course, as “the biz” is indeed a business, they have plenty of projects that were passed on and PASSED offers all of them a chance to present what some suits ignored in the past.

With all of that said, go get your tickets here.

Given the penchant for reboots, revivals, etc. these days, we’re cautious to announce any sort of “swan song”.

That being said, one of our favorite improv teams, Boss Jr. (Matt Rath, Naomi Villa, and Jake Dunnington) will be having their final show at The Clubhouse in Los Feliz next Wednesday, September 5th around 8:15PM.

Truly, we’ve enjoyed the trio get weird, go deep, and still keep an air of silliness abound and the teams that they’ve booked over the years on their nice and tight improv showcase.

So, join them for what will be (at least for the time being) one last go.
