To do a live comedy show for 8 years is a feat, but try upping the ante to doing it in a romance novel only store and franchise it to the the romance novel store’s second location all the way across the country, THEN record an entire album. That has been the trajectory of Romantic Comedy, the long running comedy show at the wondrous gem that is The Ripped Bodice and we talk to co-host/co-creator Jenny Chalikian about what’s been integral to Romantic Comedy’s success.

Follow Romantic Comedy @romcomshow, Jenny @jchalikian, and Erin Judge @iamerinjudge. Get Live at The Ripped Bodice here starting this Friday.

CAKE Comedy Now Using Kickstarter to Tour City by City

Carrie Gravenson, Abbi Crutchfield, Kaytlin Bailey, and Erin Judge, otherwise known as CAKE Comedy, having been touring together across the U.S. since 2012.

Now that it’s 2017, they’re looking to streamline their touring model via Kickstarter.

Basically, they’ll be selling tickets for a show directly through Kickstarter and if they meet their goal, a pretty great show will happen. If not, everyone walks away with no cost to them and then CAKE Comedy can move on to the next show.

Their first show that they’re crowdfunding is in Philadelphia on April 24th, but their deadline to raise money is 12 days away (as of this post). They’ve got $577 raised out of the $1000 goal.

Please support them as you’ll be supporting independent live comedy, women in comedy, and overall good comedy.
