BEST COMEDY NIGHT
Award Winner 2006

Hours: Sun 7pm-8:30pm, Mon-Fri 8pm-9:30pm, Sat 6:30pm-8pm
Entertainment: Live Entertainment

Description

The original outpost of the Comedy Works franchise (now with a second location south of town) is underground, but the acts the club presents aren't. The cavernous and oft-cramped room hosts many of the comics who have regularly cozied up to Jay, Dave and Conan (Jerry Seinfeld, Roseanne Barr, Ellen Degeneres, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle among them), as well as local standup guys and gals. The club has been going since 1981 and even earned accolades in USA Today as one of the top five comedy venues in the country. The setting isn't for the claustrophobic -- tables are shoved together to maximize the laughter-decibel level -- and the drinks aren't cheap. But the laughs aren't, either.

2006 | BEST COMEDY NIGHT

Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks The Comedy Works may be celebrating its 25th birthday this year by bringing in one big name after another, but the club stays fresh by giving amateurs a chance, too. And there are no hours more amateur than Tuesday's New Talent Night, when comedy guru Deacon Gray shepherds about fifteen newbies through brief sets. Not only does New Talent Night give untried comics a chance to perform before a real audience and develop skills, but Gray gives... More »

The world needs more of what Amy Schumer has to offer: fresh, bold comedy that casually confronts sexuality and race in a way that makes you laugh now -- and think about it later. Whether she's discu... More »

By Robin Edwards | Thu, April 26, 2012

In her comedy, Amy Schumer gets boldly, hilariously personal, whether she's discussing HPV, divulging ridiculous sexual encounters or playing the ditzy blonde who just wants to catch a man ("I know this shirt's a little weird -- it kinda makes me ... More »

So much fun. such a great night to be had. I love comedy clubs tho.... New talent night is the best! That's on Tuesdays I believe. Mediocre drinks and food, but that's not the reason you'd go here!
