What People Are Saying About The Comedy Store

The Scene – The darkest comedy club of 'em all. This pitch-black box on the Sunset Strip is rumored to be haunted by performers (and mobsters) of old. Presiding over the joint since 1972 is the Shore family, first by matron and stage mother Mitzi, now son Paulie. Three rooms feature comedy seven nights a week: Main Room, Original Room, and the intimate Belly Room upstairs. Watch your step around this place; they saved the lights for the stage. – – The Draw – A virtual "who's who" of comedians have and continue to perform here. Roseanne, Richard Pryor, Jim Carrey, David…
Editor's Tips
- Save Money:
- Get in free Sunday and Monday from 7pm to 8pm for "Pot-luck," similar to open mic. After that, it's $5 for "Pop-ins," where established and celebrity comedians try out new material.
- Know Before You Go:
- Unlike most clubs, you can call the Comedy Store anytime after 9am and a real person--not a recording--assists with reservations.

Well, my wife took her sister to see this show for her birthday. The comics called them hookers, fat cows, and suggested that they die etc. etc. "Who would ever f--- these sl---ts" etc. Many comics crossed the lines of humor and basic human decency.
To top it all off, the waitress was in on the cruelty.
There should be laws against this kind of verbal abuse. If I find that there are I will be pursuing them.

Louie Anderson and Friends!
by OlgaCitysearch
This is by far one of the best comedy clubs available. Parking in the area is a night mare, but not for this club. They have next door parking, which is very inexpensive considering the are, and the staff is very friendly. I took a friend with me to enjoy Louie Anderson and Friends - he is so funny and some of his friends are some of my favorite funny actors. OH - big deal and I wish someone had told me ahead of time - eat before you go to this club, because they do not serve food. My friend and I made the big mistake of not having dinner before the 9pm show and we had to starve, plus drink, and eat the only thing available (popcorn) - not very comfortable to the stomach.

Tony Clifton and Doobie McDonald
by glenrubens
My associates have speculated this for a long time. Beware Mr. Clifton. We have reason to believe Mr. McDonald will be at your May 16th show.
My Youtube channel will display all the details.

Great Place To Perform by Laurie Fondiler, Comedian
by fondiler
I performed there years ago. It's Hollywood, It's the Original Comedy Store!! It's exciting no matter what anyone says and they will say it - It's been around forever and named comedians drop by and hang out - get stage time. If you go there - you'll eventually see everyone!! And, you'll learn alot about being a comedian. If you want to see the nice,the caring and the bitter - they are all there!
Is it expensive? It's a Comedy Club - if you want cheap get a drink at the dollar store!
- Pros: It's the Comedy Store!!!
- Cons: Parking
