Well we've done the comedy thing before, but it never seems to be a flop... so, here's a comedy show with a twist - it's a competition!!!!!

Supposedly, this will be the Biggest and Best comedy competition ever held in the state of Connecticut. Twenty of the funniest most hilarious Connecticut Comics were invited to participate in the competition, but only 5 of these professional comics were considered good enough for the final on April 26. And, in addition to this, we can warm up with 5 of the best amateur comedians in the competition. The contest itself features Celebrity and Industry Judges, Special Comedy Guests, and Hosts. The finals will be hosted by Billy Winn from WPLR's Chaz and AJ in the morning and with Emmy Award winning comic Jim Florentine as the headliner.

Cash Bar, Refreshments, and Prizes

Show times:

8:00 for the amateur comedians
&
10:00 for the professional comedians

(tickets $19.50)

FINE PRINT:

Feel free to pay in advance through PayPal if you prefer. HOWEVER, PAYPAL ASSESSES A FEE FOR EACH TRANSACTION. Hence, I do not receive the full amount and - so as not to lose too much money - it is necessary to ask you to pay a few dollars extra. Of course, if you prefer to pay me in cash upon arrival that is fine too (and could save you a couple dollars.)

    It was great to finally meet some of the "get-a-life" bunch! Had a wonderful time and expect there will be plenty more to come!!

       I had a great time! Everyone was very nice and welcoming. I wish I could have stayed longer, but perhaps next time. The only thing I wasn't sure of initially was where to meet everyone. It was a bit akward having to walk up to people and ask if they were from Meetup. But it was great. Thanks for making the first one fun! 
    •  Just an all around great night...great laughs - both at the show and after!! 
    •  Price was right, comics were great!
