Clubs are closed. So are theaters. But that doesn't mean you can't go to a live comedy show. Just online. It's standup, socially distanced.
Join us on Wednesday, July 29 at at 9 o'clock (Eastern)(add it to your calendar here). We're pumped to have comedians Atsuko Okatsuka, Anna Bianco & Jessie Wayburn.
Here's the main page for the series where you can check out upcoming and past shows.
Or follow us on social media for the same:

Here's how it works:
- Hit the "Join the interactive show" button or the "Join the livestream on YouTube" button (though that's much less fun) below at 9:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 29 to join.
- Turn on your microphone and/or camera so we can hear everybody laugh and feel together (also: behave).
- Our amazing comedians do 15 minute sets each.
- You laugh a great deal.
- Donate. We're not putting up a paywall since we want everyone to easily join but we'd appreciate your donating $5 (or more!). Everybody's gigs went poof so a bit of cash would be highly appreciated.

Then, Anna Bianco.
Anna used to perform in clubs all around the city, now her main virtue is Covid-19 antibodies.

And finally, Atsuko Okatsuka.
Atsuko hosts the hit live show and weekly podcast produced by Foreverdog Productions, "Let's Go Atsuko! A (woke) Japanese Game Show". It has been recommended as a show to watch by The New York Times, The AV Club, and Vulture to name a few, who described the show as a blend of "the physical silliness of Japanese game shows with the dry, matter-of-fact fatuities of Wait Wait … Don’t Tell Me!" She was named a comedian to watch by Vulture in 2018 & in TimeOut Los Angeles in 2019, and just recently released her debut album with Comedy Dynamics entitled "But I Control Me."
