LAst Laugh: This Week in Comedy

Wednesday 12/31

New Years Eve Comedy Extravaganza!, 8p Laugh Factory. Natasha Leggero headlines a great night of stand up comedy to bring in 2009.

New Years Eve Bash, 10p Comedy Store. Bobby Lee headlines this stand up bash to ring in the new year.

Thursday 1/1

Piñata, 8p Bang Improv. Confessional essays that keep you laughing and squirming at the same time.

Daddy's Dyin', 8p Theater/Theater. A play about an African-American family trying to locate their father's will as he passes away. Sounds hilarious to me.

Friday 1/2

Billy The Mime, 8p UCB. That one mime from The Aristocrats performs at UCB. Should be outrageous.

Ester Goldberg, 9p Comedy Store. An outlandish variety show with a 9-piece band and vaudeville-style wackiness.

Saturday 1/3

Point Break LIVE!, 8p The Dragonfly. Possibly the greatest improvised / scripted / stage / insanity show in the world.

2001 Improv Comedy Odyssey, 9p LA Connection. Some of the valley's better improv.
