Last week's Tiger Lily was pretty awesome! MC BP (Brandie Posey to you all) was a fantastic host! Greg Barris kicked off his residency with a bang! Jackie Gold shared with us her ideas for taming other people's crying kids while Eli Olsberg warned us with tales of his treacherous yet funny love life ( who'd thunk it?). Brent Weinbach had us all rethink shopping at "Ralphs" in the future while Dave Huntsberger did what he does best made us think and laugh hysterically.We were also lucky to have the lovely Melinda Hill drop by! Boston comedian Ken Reid closed the show telling us hilarious tales of his family you know like that one time his dad fought raccoons! All the performers on the show did awesome! Thanks to all that came, performed and laughed!

This week is destined to me terrific! Two of my comedy idols on one bill?!! So whatcha waiting for? See ya Monday!

HOLY FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCK. HOLY FUCK.

Our schedule got jostled a bit, so our second show this month is on the second tuesday instead of the third. Apologies for the... CONFUSION.

Again, the show's SEPTEMBER 14TH.

Two Tuesdays each month, the best stand-up comedians in LA and the country descend upon a beautiful film theater downtown for a night of good beer, insanely comfortable seats, and live comedy that people in other parts of the country pay upwards of $20 to see.

And it's FREE!

The lineup this week is AMAZING. Featuring...

Maria Bamford
Hugh Moore
Greg Barris
Marianne Sierk
Paul Cibis
Robert Yasumura
Shawn Carlow
Dave Ross

and hosted by Buck Ball!

September 11th – Mitch Rouse (According to Jim, Strangers with Candy)

The Armando Show is an hour-long improvised comedy show inspired by an audience suggestion, which the celebrity hosts interpret through a personal and truthful improvised monologue. Inspired by that monologue, a cast composed of veteran Chicago and Los Angeles alumni perform scenes that, in turn, inspire a response from Armando. This propels hilarious interchanges between Armando’s monologues and the company’s scenes.

The cast includes Dan Bakkedahl (Daily Show, 30 Rock), Frank Caeti (MAD TV), Betty Cahill (SNL), Mike Coleman (The Factory),Josh DuBose (Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip), Molly Erdman (According to Jim), Thomas Fowler (Joey, World Cup Comedy), James Grace (Super Troopers), Dave Hill (La La Land), Jessica Makinson (Halfway Home), Seamus McCarthy (The Tourist Trap), Jason Pardo (The Brothers Solomon), David Razowsky (Roseanne, Working, Second City Mainstage), Zabeth Russell (Mystic River), Douglas Sarine (Ask a Ninja, Monk), Brian Shortall (In Treatment), Brandon Sornberger (Bodega), Miles Stroth (Global, Inc.), Jean Villepique (30 Rock, The Office).

Reservations are strongly recommended.

LA Times reviewer F. Kathleen Foley describes the performance by saying, " …this free-associative repetition melds into Zen-like flights of fancy…."

This show is the reason to see live improv in Los Angeles.

This Is Not Happening presents "Tales from the Road" featuring Bill Burr, Eddie Ifft, Jim Jefferies, Jackie Kashian & Bert Kreischer, hosted by Ari Shaffir

First there was drugs (Pyschedelia), then sex (So I'm F**king This Girl, Right), then drugs again (Pyschedelia II, of course), then fighting (Fisticuffs), then coming out (Over the Raibow), then trouble with the 5-0 (I Fought the Law), and last month there was Heartbreak. Now we've named the series (This Is Not Happening) and we're back with our eighth, and hopefully most kickass, storyteller show...

Tales from the Road will feature a fantastic line-up of comics telling their most outrageous, most insane, most holy shit stories collected from a life of doing comedy on the road.

For 5 bucks, really?
