Pick of the Day: Luke Null: Live Special Taping (in LA) 10/2

September 14, 2023

dynasty typewriter, los angeles comedy, luke null, musical comedy

For all the well earned misgivings that come with musical comedy, especially the kind done with a guitar, Luke Null is a bright and shining exception. He subverts the songwriting form in a subtle, but masterfully comedic way and has penned and sung some of the best comedy songs we’ve heard in recent memory. Innovative, poignant, and devastatingly satirical, Null makes up (and then some) for so much hackneyed guitar comedy that you’ve very likely been subjected to over the last several years.

With that in mind, you really need to be at his taping to see and laugh at and tap your toe with on Mon. Oct. 2nd at Dynasty Typewriter. There are two tapings, 7:30PM & 10PM, and you can (and very much should) get tickets at $20 here and here respectively.

Pick of the Day: Morgan Jay (in NYC) 9/1 & 9/2

August 22, 2023

little island, morgan jay, musical comedy, nyc comedy

Summertime in NYC affords many a wonderful thing, one of which is live shows at the man-made Little Island outside, beneath the sky outlined by the Hudson and the iconic NYC skyline. They’ve got plenty of programming lined-up for NYC residents to delight in.

Morgan Jay‘s dulcet tones, whipsmart crowd work, hilarious and emotionally resonant original songs would be quite the thing to enjoy in the Little Island setting. Jay is indeed stopping into NYC to play four exclusive shows exclusive at The Glade on Little Island.

Fri. Sept. 1st and Sat. Sept. 2nd at both 7PM & 9PM will be when Jay brings his charm and his nylon string guitar to serenade/rib/celebrate those in attendance and, best of all, it’s free to attend. Get more details here.

Pick of the Day: Arti Gollapudi Performs the Real Book Like a Real B*tch (in NYC) 8/8

Arti Gollapudi, joe's pub, musical comedy, nyc comedy, solo show, storytelling

One of the most marvelously spirited comedians in NYC, Arti Gollapudi, is bringing her past and present to the very immediate future in what should be a beaming delight of a raunchy, yet classy affair at NYC’s venerable Joe’s Pub.

For what she’s calling “Arti Gollapudi Performs the Real Book Like a Real B*tch“, Gollapudi will be doing jazz standards with some of her favorite musicians throughout the city (canteenkilla, Talk Bazaar, Syl Dubenion, and Koa Ho) while weaving in her stories of trying to find love and chronic uterus pain and everything else in between in the life and times of Arti. Very special guests El Kempner (Palehound) and Karolena Theresa will be joining her throughout the evening too.

So, get your best jazz attire, get your $15 tickets (plus 2 drink or 1 food item min.), and head to NoHo to the one and only Joe’s Pub on Tues. Aug. 8th at 7PM to catch what will likely be the most unforgettable night of jazz and comedy that you’ve seen in quite some time.

Morgan Jay Spreads Joy (and Big F*** Energy) with “Live at the Village”

comedy special, morgan jay, musical comedy

Aside from his high pitched golden pipes and soothing guitar picking all while being able to seamless switch between earnest dramedy songs and crowd work, Morgan Jay really has a masterful knack in connecting with an audience. His latest hour special, Morgan Jay – Live at the Village, puts on a clinic with having the crowd so much on the same wavelength with him that it’s not awkward that they cut to them so often (crowd shots feel shoehorned-in, at best, in most comedy specials these days). This might be the most fun that call-and-response has ever been in a hour of comedy.

Singing your crowd work is something special and unique to Morgan and the way he croons to audience members is kind of irresistible. Jay handily utilizes his ability to hit those high notes that only some other comedians save for a single song in their hour or a tiny impression of some pop diva, but pairs it with a low key, often sultry R&B vibe. This gives the perfect comedic canvas for his satiric, yet heartfelt love songs.

Throughout Live at the Village, Jay possesses such a rambunctious (and often prurient) energy that the ride through his performance is something between going through the Tunnel of Love and Space Mountain. Jay even goes so far as explicitly wanting the crowd to make sure to engage in sexual congress, but there is an air of silliness that keeps things from getting too horny. That dynamic is made even more ironic with the fact that this special is taped at The Village, a legendary recording studio that’s hosted such a star-crossed band as Fleetwood Mac.

Morgan Jay: Live at the Village is streaming now on YouTube, at your convenience. Go watch, sing along, and enjoy it here.

Pick of the Day: Kevin McDonald Superstar (A Rock Opera) (in NYC) 8/31

bell house, dave foley, dave hill, jean grae, john wlaysweski, julie klausner, kevin mcdonald, kids in the hall, musical comedy, nyc comedy

The prospect of Kids in the Hall’s Kevin McDonald doing a new anything is definitely worth your time, attention, and money. The more elevated prospect of him doing a full on rock opera that’s based on “totally true events” should make it somehow more imperative for you to buy tickets and go to The Bell House on Thurs. Aug. 31st at 7PM.

Come this August, neither is just a fabricated scenario. Kevin McDonald and @ThisMyShowPresents will be premiering Kevin McDonald Superstar (A Rock Opera) at Brooklyn’s Bell House that’s all sourced from the life and times of Kevin McDonald. Joining him will be a treasure trove of NYC comedy including KITH’s Dave Foley, Dave Hill, Julie Klausner, Kevin McDonald, Jean Grae, and John Wlaysweski.

We’re pretty sure this is going to sell out way in advance, so go get your tickets for $30.57 a pop here right now.

Pick of the Day: Middle Aged Dad Jam Band (in LA) 5/20

little secret, los angeles comedy, musical comedy

If there was a middle aged dad jam band of your dreams, it would probably have Ken Marino and David Wain in it, right? Right.

So, with that in mind, you might want to get yourself a ticket to the so-called Middle Aged Dad Jam Band with Ken, David, Frank Barrera, Sweet Teddy P, Jon Spurney, Jordan Katz, and Henry Wain and find your way to Little Secret in Hollywood. It’ll be sweet jams that will have even sweeter, brilliant musical comedy guests including Weird Al Yankovic, Jo Lo Truglio, Jackie Tohn, and Jessica McKenna.

This round of Middle Aged Dad Jam Band is set for this Sat. May 20th with doors at 7PM and starting at 8PM. Also, you should know that all of this show is only coming to you for $15 if you get your tickets right now. Go get ’em here.

Pick of the Day: Lit Up Lounge with Doña Oxford (Nowhere Comedy Live-stream) 5/20

abortion af, Angela Giarratana, captain danger, david lucky, drennon davis, gary stockdale, Jeremy Culhane, lit up lounge, lizz winstead, musical comedy, paul provenza, schoolcraft and murray, Tracy Newman, virtual comedy, zach sherwin

Lit Up Lounge with Doña Oxford is an especially curated night of astounding musical comedy of all rhythms and melodies and generations brought to Paul Provenza’s exclusive backyard venue, The Green Room.

That’s pretty much three shows worth of the best of musical comedy in and around LA all in one. Lit Up Lounge with Doña Oxford is set for Sat. May 20th at 7:30PM PT/10:30PM ET. Get tickets for the live-stream for the early bird price of $10 (remember that proceeds going towards Abortion Access Front) and you can (and very much should) get them here.

Pick of the Day: Kelly Bachman & Dylan Adler: Rape Victims Are Horny Too @ Joe’s Pub (in NYC) 5/16

Dylan Adler, joe's pub, kelly bachman, musical comedy, nyc comedy, rape victims are horny too

Last year, Kelly Bachman and Dylan Adler put one of the best works of musical comedy in recent memory with their live album Rape Victims Are Horny Too. It’s a truly astounding and groundbreaking work that is simultaneously so damn funny, but honest and powerful and respective to their own truths as sexual assault survivors. You can read our thoughts about how moving and groundbreaking it is here.

With that in mind, getting to see Kelly and Dylan put the show up live is a must-see experience. Lucky for New Yorkers, Adler is back in NYC for all of May and will be putting on an exclusive evening of Rape Victims Are Horny Too up at one of NYC’s most venerable venues, Joe’s Pub on Tues. May 16th at 9:30PM. Tickets are only $15 (plus 2 drink or 1 food item min.) for this very special, exclusive, who-knows-when-this-will-happen-again night and you best go get them here.

Pick of the Day: Fiona Landers: Funeral Bouquet (in LA) 4/7

fiona landers, los angeles comedy, lyric hyperion, musical comedy, solo show

Thinking about how live comedy is occurring basically at the levels from the before times, we’ve been delightfully reminded, over and over, that many of the things we enjoyed from what seems like decades ago are still around. With a renewed energy coming out of the pandemic, it’s a truly nice surprise to know that there are many a grand thing that we haven’t lost.

One of those things is Fiona Landers‘ ambitious solo musical show Funeral Bouquet that fearlessly and hysterically unpacks a specific grief-filled time in her life. Years and year ago, after we first saw it, we wrote, “Truly, Fiona’s stories accompanied by deftly constructed songs that touch on cancer, death, and rape cover the range of being so damn funny to being so damn heartbreaking (all in the best way possible),” and we still stand by that. Knowing that Fiona is putting Funeral Bouquet up once again at the Lyric Hyperion next week on Fri. Apr. 7th at 7:30PM, it’s thus imperative that we urge you to catch this next performance.

Tickets are $10 and you best go get them here and revel in her show next Friday.

Pick of the Day: A CHRISTMAS CAROLE KING: A Hastily Written Musical Starring the Audience! (in NYC) 12/18

December 9, 2022

aaron jackson, brooklyn, jo firestone, josh sharp, littlefield, live comedy, musical comedy, nyc comedy

What would holiday music be without caroling or people just singing in unison in general? Arguably, it would be, perhaps, just annoying (shout out to everyone playing non-stop holiday music for all of December)?

With that in mind, Jo Firestone, Aaron Jackson, and Josh Sharp are upping the ante here with making a Christmas version of their “Hastily Written Musical Starring the Audience” entitled “A Christmas Carole King“. Indeed, you the audience will be the center of this yuletide tinged round of chaos that will probably be more fun than every holiday party you go to this year.

Get in on A CHRISTMAS CAROLE KING: A Hastily Written Musical Starring the Audience! set for Sun. Dec. 8th at 8PM at Littlefield in Brooklyn. Tickets are $12.47 a pop and you can (and very much should) get them here.

Pick of the Day: Hit That Track with Dylan Adler (in LA) 12/10

December 5, 2022

Dylan Adler, los angeles comedy, musical comedy, stand up comedy, the elysian

One Dylan Adler, the newly minted Vulture Comedian You Should and Will Know and the newly added writer to Corden, has gotten plenty of ink from us and deservingly so. Once again, ever since we saw him do hard hitting jokes and songs about intersectional race issues and mental health and a backflip on the top of a parking garage, we’ve been smitten.

Adler has just moved to LA (b/c of Corden) and as such will be getting to debut his hour show for us Angelenos with (hopefully) better weather. Hit That Track with Dylan Adler is set for Sat. Dec. 10th at 7:30PM at The Elysian. Tickets are only $16 and you best go snag ’em right now here.

Pick of the Day: How to Poison an Audience with Kate Hollowell (in LA) 11/26

November 23, 2022

kate hollowell, los angeles comedy, musical comedy, solo show, the elysian

Just off of title alone, comedy mult-hyphenate Kate Hollowell certainly knows how to hook one’s curiosity with her playfully, carefully “unhinged” stage show as pop star persona. When we first heard about it, the show was joyfully called “Number One Popstar Presents: A Sold Out Show *Plenty of Tickets …”, which we’re all in for. Now, it’s even more maniacally and splendidly called “How to Poison an Audience with Kate Hollowell”.

Hollowell does a magnificent and hysterical job sending up the idea of wanting to be a big time pop star and what a desire for fame can do to one’s psyche (on top of making genuine bops throughout the show). Also, Kate still goes the extra mile with having indelible backup dancers for many of her numbers and an actual child playing her very own inner child (that doesn’t take notes very well). Honestly, this does what Lonely Island’s Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping set out to do, but much better.

The next How to Poison the Audience with Kate Hollowell is set for this Sat. Nov. 26th at 7:30PM at The Elysian. Tickets are $12 and you very much can and should get them here.

The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 131: Dylan Adler and Kelly Bachman & Making Their Own Comedy Gold from Trauma

September 28, 2022

News, The Comedy Bureau Field Report

Dylan Adler, kelly bachman, musical comedy, rape jokes, rape survivors, trauma

Born from the roughs of a chance meeting at an open mic, NYC comedy darlings Dylan Adler and Kelly Bachman found both peace and an indelible comedy partner. Together, they made, for our money, one of the best hours of comedy this year and certainly one of the best albums/specials about trauma, Rape Victims Are Horny Too. This week’s TCB Field Report talks to the freewheeling duo of survivor comedians and how they managed to make such a fantastic, rollicking hour of story and song about surviving rape and trauma.

Pick of the Day: Wolves of Glendale (in NYC) 8/31

August 16, 2022

caroline's, eric jackowitz, ethan edenburg, musical comedy, nyc comedy, tom mcgovern, wolves of glendale

The abject absurdity of this world, sometimes, is best coped with by meeting it with some concentrated, even more obtuse absurdity. Melodies and harmonies with a catchy beat doesn’t hurt either.

That’s where you’ll want to tune into the Wolves of Glendale, a newly minted musical comedy trio of Ethan Edenburg, Eric Jackowitz, and Tom McGovern. Their songs are a hysterical reflection of a time so ridiculous that is virtually without precedent within our lifetimes. As perhaps alluded to above, they sure can get your toe tapping with whatever they’re playing.

Most recently, you’ve might have seen them on one of the literally big stages at Netflix Is a Joke Fest, which is saying something considering they were a band only formed earlier this year and, as such, you shouldn’t miss their exclusive night at Caroline’s on Broadway in NYC at the end of the month.

Ethan, Eric, and Tom will take the stage as The Wolves of Glendale on Wed. Aug. 31st at 7PM ET, which will be quite the amazing setting to see them (you’ll probably never see live music as intimately as in a comedy club). Tickets are $20 (plus a 2 drink min.) and you really ought to get your tickets here now.

Pick of the Day: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Sing-a-Long (in LA) 7/6

dtla, los angeles comedy, musical comedy, rachel bloom, sing-a-long

It has been almost three years since Rachel Bloom said good by to her groundbreaking musical comedy series, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Of course, those three years seem like eons ago, but, all the same, we’re thrilled to hear that Rachel will be putting on very special Crazy Ex-Girlfriend sing-a-long evening come next month.

A “few very special guests” will be joining Rachel at Julian Velard’s new DTLA piano bar, The Stowaway, to sing many of your beloved bangers from the show (and, of course, encourage you to sing right along with them).

This Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Sing-a-Long will happen on Wed. Jul. 6th at 8:15PM PT. Tickets are $19.06 and we highly suggest you snag them before they very likely sell out here.

Pick of the Day: Rape Victims Are Horny Too Album Taping (in NYC) 6/24 & 6/25

album taping, Dylan Adler, kelly bachman, musical comedy, nyc comedy

It’s pretty clear at this point that Kelly Bachman and Dylan Adler have carved out their place in the NYC comedy scene for their hilarity through daring vulnerability (also, you might know/have seen Dylan do a standing backflip and Kelly call out monster Harvey Weinstein to his face). They carry on the torch of truth in comedy to new frontiers, especially with the show they wrote and perform together, Rape Victims Are Horny Too.

There is no subterfuge to that title. Kelly and Dylan are both rape survivors and have, as an act of healing and holding up a beacon for other survivors to not feel alone, have written a very, very funny musical about that part of their lives. They’ve honed the show over the years and are going to put the show officially on wax with a live album taping this month. Undoubtedly, this will be a great addition to bold comedy specials cut from similar cloth including Hannah Gadsby’s Nanette and Cameron Esposito’s Rape Jokes.

There are two tapings of Rape Victims Are Horny Too at the Lower East Side’s Caveat on Fri. Jun. 24th & Sat. Jun. 25th at 9:30PM ET. Tickets are $15 and you best go get them now.

Pick of the Day: Julie Klausner: Medleys and Other New Variants (in LA) 4/29-5/1

hotel cafe, julie klausner, los angeles comedy, musical comedy

The charmingly sardonic wit of Julie Klausner is usually reserved for NYC where she resides, leaving Angelenos to just obsess over her podcast, Double Threat, and TV show, Difficult People and experience her from afar.

Thankfully, Julie’s got a new shiny show she’s taking around including three nights at The Hotel Cafe in the heart of Hollywood. Called Medleys and Other New Variants, Julie has dug up some of the most delightfully obscure songs (one being from Kate Bush’s Silence of the Lambs musical for starters) and whipped some of her own “clevleys” (clever medleys) as well.

It’s such a special thing that Klausner is bringing to the City of Angels that the first two nights, 4/29 & 4/30 have sold out and there are only tickets for May 1st. You best get your tickets for $41.50 (includes fees) quick right here.

Pick of the Day: Boom Clap Let’s Ride (in NYC) 4/12

aaron jackson, charli xcx, jo firestone, josh sharp, musical comedy, nyc comedy

When it comes to (somewhat) controlled chaos, almost nothing comedically thrives as much as projects with Jo Firestone involved.

The concept of “hastily written jukebox musical for Charli XCX starring the audience” might be a little too daring for most to dream up, attempt, or pull off, but celebrated NYC comedy staples Jo Firestone, Aaron Jackson, and Josh Sharp will be doing exactly that sort of marvelous interactive pop-driven comedy mayhem next month at Littlefield. If this has any of the rambunctious joy of Jo’s Good Timing special, this will be more than worth your hard earned money and free time.

We don’t have much idea of what Boom Clap, Let’s Ride will entail, but that’s part of what should be the hysterical thrill of the whole experience and, if you’re in the NYC area, you should absolutely make this your evening for Tues. Apr. 12th at 8PM ET.

Tickets are $10 and you can and should go get ’em here.

Pick of the Day: Pop Show with Ziwe & Jen Goma (in LA) 5/21

dtla, jen goma, los angeles comedy, musical comedy, regent theater, ziwe

Ziwe owned 2020 with Baited on IG Live, ascended to premium cable with Ziwe on Showtime, and is poised to own 2022 with going live around the country.

Ziwe is bringing her iconic pop star status to stages very soon with one of her favorite pop stars, Jen Goma and, thankfully, one of those stops will be in LA at The Regent Theater in DTLA on Sat. May 21st at 7PM PT. Both her and Jen are going to wrangle LA’s best to perform their very own original pop songs (complete w/comedic intro/presentation). Do we need to say that it’ll be an iconic night or did you already presume that while checking how many tickets you’re going to buy?

This will undoubtedly sell out real quick, so you better snag your tickets starting at $30 here.

Catherine Cohen: The Twist… ? She’s Gorgeous, The Special, Is Only a Week Away

catherine cohen, comedy special, musical comedy, netflix, netflix is a joke, trailer

Catherine Cohen has been such a maven of her particular brand of high gloss, yet vulnerable cabaret/musical comedy for so long that she has built a die-hard following that has packed out both Club Cumming as well as IG Live when she had to live-stream her main stay show, Cabernet Cabaret. That being the case, an hour special has been a long time coming and that, in of itself, is a twist for all the years passing until now when this special, The Twist… ? She’s Gorgeous is debuting on Netflix.

Cohen put this very first hour up at the hallowed NYC comedy staple, Joe’s Pub, which we’re thrilled that Netflix subscribers (and friends w/Netflix passwords) will get to see just in case they haven’t seen its intimate majesty.

There’s only a week and change before we get to see Cohen in one of her shiniest get-ups to do her debut hour one-woman comedy special. For now, you can pass the time with a taste of what’s to come with the official trailer for Catherine Cohen: The Twist… ? She’s Gorgeous here before the Mar. 15th premiere.

Pick of the Day: Rubbish Comedy Presents Darling Tallie (in NYC) 3/23

angela trimbur, aparna nancherla, dance party, dave hill, dixon place, jo firestone, musical comedy, nyc comedy, rubbish comedy, seaton smith, stand up comedy, tallie medez

As we are thankfully starting to see, there are new folks stepping up and filling in where others in comedy had to close up shop due to the pandemic. Rubbish Comedy is the latest collective to get born out of this time and it sure seems like they’ve got some fun things up their sleeves, whether they’re actually rubbish or not.

Currently operating out of Dixon Place in NYC, Rubbish’s latest happening, Darling Tallie, will be a triple threat of a comedy show, dance party, and dance contest. Cocoon Central Dance Team’s Tallie Medez will be hosting/presiding over this comedy dance mash-up evening with an amazing NYC line-up of Aparna Nancherla, Seaton Smith, Jo Firestone, Dave Hill, and dance sensation Angela Trimbur.

Darling Tallie is set for Wed. Mar. 23rd at 7:30PM ET at Dixon Place. Tickets are only $18 right now and you really ought to get on snagging those ASAP (and dusting off your dancing shoes).

Pick of the Day: Dylan Adler: Hit That Track (in NYC) 2/18

December 30, 2021

caveat, Dylan Adler, musical comedy, nyc, nyc comedy, stand up comedy

We might have told you before (and we will definitely tell you again in our best 100 year end list) that Dylan Adler is one of the funniest people that we got to see for the very first time in 2021. His vulnerable, personal, dark, physical (and often musical) comedy had us doubled over when we first saw it on a rooftop in DTLA earlier this year and it’s imperative to us that you go catch Dylan wherever he’s playing. Thankfully, for New Yorkers, that’s all over town all the time (and perhaps in LA in January).

Adler is actually doing his very own full length show that is a treat that no one in around the NYC’s LES should miss. Hit That Track will have Dylan headline Caveat on Feb. 18th at 7PM ET (so, hopefully that’s far enough from the reaches of this recent COVID-19 surge) and tickets are only $15.

Go get them right here right now and enjoy looking forward to something in mid February rather than worry about Valentine’s Day.

Pick of the Day: The Cooties (in LA) 12/3

November 29, 2021

eric jackowitz, ethan edenburg, jacob jeffries, los angeles, los angeles comedy, musical comedy

When it comes to musical comedy, especially in LA, it’s harder to have much more fun than you can have with the sweet harmonies and pure absurdity of The Cooties. Ethan Edenburg, Eric Jackowitz, and Jacob Jeffries together make up for such a subversive power pop trio that we’ve enjoyed so thoroughly throughout the years, whether it be on stage or when going through their music video collection for the umpteenth time.

Thank goodness that they’ve got an in-person performance lined-up this very week that you can catch over at Tom Bergin’s Public House on Fairfax where they’ve hand a solid Thursday stand-up show for just over a year now.

Tickets are only $5 and we strongly believe it might be one of the best ways to spend your Friday night this week. Go get your tickets right here right now.

Pick of the Day: Fake Birthday with Caitlin Cook and A.J. Holmes (in LA) 11/14

November 3, 2021

atsuko okatsuka, langston kerman, liza treyger, los angeles comedy, musical comedy, naomi ekperigin, silverlake, variety show, zach zucker

One of NYC’s most fun variety shows is the comedy and music mash-up at Fake Birthday with Caitlin Cook and A.J. Holmes. Holmes is a Broadway dynamo and Cook has toured the globe with her über clever musical comedy (she did a whole solo musical comedy show based on bathroom graffiti). Together, they have been the duo at the core of Fake Birthday and with their musical comedy powers combined (and a stellar line-up of guests), they’ve made quite the spot for themselves in the thriving NYC comedy scene.

So, Cook and Holmes are stopping into LA for an exclusive show at Silverlake Lounge, which, if you’re in and around LA, you absolutely make your Silverlake to catch. They’ve gathered an exemplary LA line-up with Atsuko Okatsuka, Naomi Ekperigin, Zach Zucker, Langston Kerman, Liza Treyger, and Ethan Kuperberg all joining with their own grand comedy stylings in between original songs from Cook and Holmes.

This LA edition of Fake Birthday is set for Sun. Nov. 14th at Silverlake Lounge at 8PM PT. Tickets are $16.95 and you ought to go snag them right now (especially since it’ll be AJ Holmes’ actual birthday for this Fake Birthday).

Pick of the Day: Pop Show with Ziwe (in NYC) 10/8

August 27, 2021

bell house, brooklyn, donwill, jen goma, live comedy, musical comedy, ny comedy, ziwe

Ziwe, the icon of IG Live turned iconic disruptor in late night/sketch on premium television, is doing an exclusive show at Brooklyn’s comedy haven, The Bell House.

We shouldn’t have explain any further for you to buy tickets, but, just in case, we will continue.

Pop Show will have Ziwe gather her favorite comedians in the city to perform their very own original pop songs as well as “pop presentations” to exude the most pop-stardom possible in one live comedy show. On the bill thus far is Jen Goma and DJ Donwill, but more will be announced very, very soon.

Pop Show with Ziwe will take place, iconically, on Oct. 8th at 7:30PM ET at The Bell House. Tickets are $25/proof of vaccination required (and they will sell out). Go get them here right now.
