The Comedy Bureau Field Report Ep. 108: Sara June & All Comedy, Everywhere, All at Once

April 20, 2022

These are the days of the comedy multi-hyphenates. Not only does that mean that taking a 100% focus on one direction within comedy isn’t very feasible anymore, it has inspired many comedian of the current and recent generations to expand their repertoire into all sorts of different corners.

This week, we chat it up with one of our favorite comedy multi-hyphenates, Sara June. A writer/comedian/director, Sara’s work has had us busting up, both on stage and on the screen (that includes her most recent short Bathroom Time) and we thus talk about anything from the inner workings of trying to make it as a comedy director these days to balancing that with performing live to bed frames and starting an indie fashion label.

Also, “hot” takes on Arsenio returning for a short run and Julia Roberts taking 20 years off of rom coms.

It’s unfortunate that the scarcity mentality that so many of us live under extend to every bit of our lives. We center our lives on how much money or power or water we have left. We especially anxiously ration time to go the bathroom while at work. That’s a very powerful stressor in an economy of scarcity.

Thus, comedian/filmmaker Sara June made a hilariously morbid short film, Bathroom Time, that captures this ever present feeling many of us have with pitch perfect performances from Anna Seregina, Christine Medrano, Steph Tolev, and Bri Pruett.

It recently got to be a Vimeo Staff Pick and we fully co-sign their pick. Enjoy June’s timely short satire here.

As Texas is coming out of its gruesome winter crisis that left millions without power to fend for themselves, there is more than plenty of fallout and aftermath to deal with on the road to recovery. So, in short, they’re going to need more aid.

That’s why the wondrous and magical comedy variety show, High Priestess, is doing a very special live-stream show in support of Austin’s Safe Alliance that is providing much needed resources to Texans in dire need right now (in addition to be an org in service of abuse survivors). Hosts/Priestesses Bri Pruett and Sara June have assembled some grand comics that have their hearts with Texas including Maggie Maye, Daniel Rugg Webb, Vanessa Gonzalez, and Madison Shepard. Stand-up, tarot, weed, and a damn good time for a great cause is all set for this edition of High Priestess on Fri. Feb. 26th at 6:30PM PT/9:30PM ET.

For most months, High Priestess has served up LA a bewitching offering of live comedy, weed, and tarot. Hosts Bri Pruett and Sara June always brought together a beautiful line-up of LA’s best and presented their show in intimate, enchanting spaces.

LA’s still on lockdown, so that can’t necessarily get you to those intimate spaces yet or provide you with weed through the screen, but High Priestess is still aiming to bring you a great witchy comedy experience via live-stream. High Priestess in Cyberspace, their first live-stream show, will have a grand line-up of Casey Ley, Daniel Rugg Webb, Tessa Skara, and Bri Giger and live tarot as well all over Zoom on Wed. May 27th at 8PM PT/11PM ET.

So, you can (and very much should) RSVP for High Priestess in Cyberspace here.

If you’re anti-Trump, you ought to know that one of the groups leading the charge is the Democratic Socialists of America.

The DSA is a volunteer activist organization that does a bunch of good shit around town like drive low-income women to abortion clinics, confront politicians who are cool with families being destroyed by deportation, or fight to get our City Council to stop investing money with banks that fund the Dakota Access Pipeline.

They’re throwing a comedy show fundraiser for their LA chapter and they’ve rustled up a damn fine line-up.

You can come watch the show at Nerdmelt in the back room of Meltdown Comics and they’re just asking for a $20 suggested donation. Get more details here.
