Two of the most critically acclaimed absurdist comedians in the world, Dr. Brown and Sam Simmons, join up together again to do one of their most absurd shows, Ceremony at Silverlake’s Lyric Hyperion Theatre & Cafe.
Rather than try to explain how the show might be a postmodern dissection of the Western notion of what ‘ceremony’ is, means, and enacted, we’ll just tell you that Ceremony is damn funny and has a advisory warning of containing nudity.
Tickets are $10 in advance and $15 at the door. Get your advance tickets here.

The show that has comedians following the most heart wrenching videos on the Internet is back.
Follow That! really does play a video that is almost perfectly designed to make you cry and has stand-up comedians see what they can do immediately afterwards.
It may sound cruel and unusual, but, as far as we have seen thus far, it has been a hell of a good time.
Tickets are $8 in advance and $10 at door. Get your advance tickets here.
