See "Night of the Living Dead"
Like you've never seen it before
 To
help get you into that Halloween mood, we're hosting a late night
showing of the cult horror classic "Night of the Living Dead" on Saturday, October 17.
And, for extra added awesome-ness, a couple of the funny ComedyCity
folks will be providing commentary throughout the movie, a la Mystery
Science Theatre 3000 - only live!

| Shoot a short movie and
enter it into the ComedyCity
 Us crazy ComedyCity folks love making movies too - and we know some of you do as well. So, we're hosting our first movie challenge for our fans to create their own short Halloween themed movie.
They can be scary or funny, live-action or animated, whatever you want. Basically, as long as it somehow has something to do with Halloween and it's under 5 minutes, it qualifies. Submissions are due to ComedyCity by Midnight on October 24th, and the top submissions will receive some fun prizes and be shown on Halloween night at ComedyCity following the late show (about 11:30pm). Click here to get the full details. |

Late Night Fun @ ComedyCity
Saturdays After Shows
Throughout the month of October we've got a bunch of fun stuff lined up post-show for your entertainment pleasure. Every Saturday night features something fun and exciting.
The "Late Night Movie Show" includes about a 1/2 hour of short videos shot by the creative folks here at ComedyCity and starring us as well. They're hilarious!
"Late Night Prime Time" is our long form improv show. Rather than short bursts of improv comedy, this show features longer scenes and character development.
Shows start about 11:30pm - after the late ComedyCity show wraps up. Conent is rated PG-13, but it's late so the little kids shouldn't be up anyway.
Here's the Late Night Lineup:
October 17th: Night of the Living Dead Live! (just $2)
October 24th: Late Night Prime Time (free)
October 31st: Movie Contest Show (free)

ComedyCity is Your Home
For Pat McCurdy - Wed. Nov. 11 @ 8pm
 So
just who is this Pat McCurdy fellow? He's a singer/songwriter from
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. His shows usually consist of just him and his
guitar and include improvised interaction with the audience.
Performing well over 300 shows a year, his large catalog of original
songs (over 600 and growing) covers a variety of topics such as lost
loves, politics, family vacations, hair styles, entertainment and
French Generals. His shows straddle the line between music and
comedy... to the enjoyment of thousands.
For more info on the legend that is Pat McCurdy, check out Pat's website, or just blindly trust us - we know funny. Wednesday, Nov. 11 at 8pm Now, unlike the usual ComedyCity shows, this isn't for the kids. Pat's shows are rated a strong PG13 for some language.
No reservations necessary. |
