groundlings, julia sweeney, largo, older and wiser, solo show

We got to catch a bit of Julia Sweeney at UnCabaret last night telling a story about dealing with her elderly mother and it was hilariously enthralling. From it, we can clearly see that her powers of observation, detail, and delivery are still at their peak (maybe even better?) and that she maintained a great balance between being incredibly personal and hysterical. If you loved her on SNL, you definitely need to see this round of Julia performing live as soon as you can.

So, with that in mind, we urge you to catch her solo show Older & Wider whenever you can. It’ll be playing at Largo next week on June 17th (tickets are $45) and Groundlings on July 1st (tickets are $20).

beverly hills, comedy show, experimental comedy, largo, los angeles, paul scheer, rob huebel, stand up, weho

Once upon a time, Rob Huebel and Paul Scheer used to take the stage together at UCB to do something called Crash Test. It was a live show where Paul and Rob got to do whatever the hell they wanted (i.e. an aggro-version of musical chairs, accidentally talking to celebrity assistants in the crowd, going over Vin Diesel’s real FB page, etc.) in between great stand-ups. Eventually, that led to an entire comedy special that they did on a glass bus.

It has been more than couple of a years since Huebel and Scheer have dove into this wondrous chaos, but that’s all changing as they will be reprising Crash Test again at Largo Thurs. May 30th at 8:30PM. Go get your tickets now as we have no doubt that this will be something special.

Guy Who Repeatedly Challenges Legality of ‘Ladies Only Nights’ in Court Sues Iliza Shlesinger for Barring Him from “Girls Night In” Show at Largo

Guy Who Repeatedly Challenges Legality of ‘Ladies Only Nights’ in Court Sues Iliza Shlesinger for Barring Him from “Girls Night In” Show at Largo

It seems that there is legal precedent under California law for this suit to exist (the story would likely be much different if it was a private party or, perhaps, a free show), but this also looks like a very twisted, flawed understanding of how to bring about equality between the sexes by the men suing Shlesinger.

Men just can’t have enough, can they?

Whatever happens will be an important distinction for live entertainment, especially, in regards to comedy shows going forward.

You, however, can take a tiny sliver of solace in the fact that the plaintiff’s name is George St. George.
