If you’re more into the Violent Night or Christmas Bloody Christmas this holiday season, you’re probably not in the market for a typical yuletide-tinged comedy show that’s perhaps just stories about dealing with your family during December.

What you might be more into is a full tilt roast of the figure head of Christmas himself, Santa Claus. Thankfully, that exact thing is happening at The Comedy Store thanks to Eddie Furth and Ryan Pigg, the minds behind Historical Roasts on Netflix, with a Fictional Roast: Santa Claus. Comedians donning the characters of Mrs. Claus, The Grinch, Scrooge, Rudolph, Frosty, and a Christmas Tree will all assemble as the dais for sending up the jolly saint.

This Fictional Roast of Santa Claus is set for Thurs. Dec. 22nd at 8PM, up in The Belly Room of The Comedy Store. Tickets are $15 and we suggest you go snag them now here as space there is limited.

If your interest is peaked by Netflix’s recent series order for Historical Roast (or you’re already a fan), then you might want to go to the very next edition of Historical Roast at The Comedy Store Belly Room where legendary pro wrestler Andre the Giant will be the target/guest of honor to see it up close all for yourself.

Tickets are $5 (plus a 2 drink minimum) and you can (and should) go get them here.

Netflix Is Getting Into Comedy Roasts by Ordering “Historical Roasts” to Series and Having Jeff Ross Attached

Well, it looks like Comedy Central isn’t the only place you’ll be able to find comedy roasts anymore.

Historical Roast (and Fictional Roast), for a few years now, have been putting the feet of anything from WWII to Shakespeare to Disney Princesses to the fire for fun on stages across LA in appropriate costumes (including Nerdmelt, The Comedy Store, and Dynasty Typewriter).

Given the success of Roast Battle, we thought it only a matter of time before this show created by Eddie Furth, Ryan Pigg, and Samee Junio got picked up somewhere, which just happened to be Netflix.

Similar to the way that Roastmaster General Jeff Ross brought Roast Battle to the forefront, Ross will have his stamp on the six episodes ordered for Historical Roasts.

We’ll keep our ears to the ground for when tapings happen and let you know ASAP.
