TOMORROW HAPPENING IS MANDATORY AND SO IS OUR MANDATORY HOLIDAY OFFICE PARTY.
Also, free popcorn, holiday gift pens, great comedy, dance party, suggestion box prize giveaway will be had.
There seems to be no excuse for you to not go… Did we mention that all of this is FREE?
Just RSVP here so your mandatory attendance is covered.
This is just TWO DAYS AWAY.
Again, your attendance is pleasantly mandatory. RSVP here: http://dola.com/mandatoryholidayofficeparty
On top of top notch FREE comedy, FREE mandatory holiday gift pens, there will be a PRIZE GIVEAWAY that includes 2 tickets to a future show at the Echoplex, a music gift bundle w/posters/CDs/vinyl, a TCB sticker, enamel pin, and our album Comedians of Interest Vol. 1.
To win, all you have to do is write a “suggestion for what to improve on in 2018″ (as you would at your day job) and place it into a “suggestion box” that we’ll have out before the show. The best suggestion wins it all.
ON TOP OF ALL OF THAT, you can get your recommended dose of dancing thanks to Ricky Carmona who will be “spinning tunes” following the show.
Really, we can’t think of anymore that to offer up you to make sure you go this “mandatory” event.
All you have to do is RSVP here.
In order to be a more benevolent benevolent bureau, we’ve decided to make our MANDATORY HOLIDAY OFFICE PARTY a free event, which means you have zero excuses for not fulfilling your mandatory attendance.
Also, there will be free gift pens as you can see below (while supplies last-though we did order hundreds of them) for all of your hard work this year!
All you have to do is RSVP here and then come and have a good time (because you’re required to do so).
Just a friendly reminder, that we’ve got two shows soon that YOU WILL have fun (& get free stuff) at!
Water Cooler Talk @ The Love Song Bar 12/5

MANDATORY HOLIDAY OFFICE PARTY at The Echoplex 12/12
Presented by TCB, DoLA, & Deep Eddy Vodka
We’ve got shows coming up and you should come to them.
Well, actually, it’s MANDATORY that you attend one of them (though, we promise it will be “fun”).
The other has free Prufrock Pizza and a nice, neat handful of our favorite performers. Also, it’s FREE.
It is the holidays. As such, we will be marking the occasion, with no particular favoritism towards any specific holiday, for all The Comedy Bureau faithful.
So, Deep Eddy Vodka, DoLA and TCB present a MANDATORY HOLIDAY OFFICE PARTY full of non-denominational, non-partisan “fun”. You will look forward to enjoying performances by Rory Scovel, Kyle Kinane, Andrés du Bouchet, Jamie Loftus, The Wheel Show, and TCB’s own Jake Kroeger.
*We also have required for this event to have free popcorn
Deep Eddy Vodka will be presenting a curated menu of cocktails to ensure a “good time” will be had.
Tickets are only $5 and you can (and need to) get them here.

The Rainbow Brainskull Hour, the creation of comedian, artist, and multimedia hyphenate Ramin Nazer, is an indie comedy show truly suited to its home in an neighborhood comic book store. It’s a great stand-up comedy show paired with phosphorescent magic and animation conjured up by Nazer himself.
The next edition of The Rainbow Brainskull Hour is set for Saturday, September 30th at 9:30PM (sharp) at Alternate Universe (1498 W. Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles, CA). Admission is free. Get more details here.

Also, the line-up is pretty damn solid. Get more details here.
