    There is a reason tickets are so cheap at this place. I actually like going out and supporting performers growing in their art - but this place failed in a big way. Of the 8 stand-up comedians we saw, 3 were ok, but this stupid place had a camera man who laughed inappropriately loud and overacted his enjoyment ("oh shit!!!) which killed it for the paying audience members. It was a complete disservice to the audience and to the performers. It turned an otherwise open-minded audience into a hostile group wanting to throw our warm beers (yes - they failed to refrigerate their refreshments) at the asshole photo guy in the back. Next time lock him out and let your growing stand-up comics learn what works and what doesn't. Posting a pic of asshole camera guy who failed everyone this Saturday. Shame on you, The Hollywood Comedy for not getting what is important!

    This is my favorite comedy venue in LA. It's underground edgy comedy at its best. It has a black box theatre meets speakeasy vibe. Reminds me of some spots in New York. It's always packed. It hosts some of LA's hottest up and coming stand up comedians and has celebrity comics drop ins that come do sets at random. Love the lady that runs the place, she's very kick ass.

It's honestly one of those places that never disappoints and is always worth visiting when you're in LA. Even on a weekday which I feel most ppl wouldn't expect. The staff is great, but one tip: order both of your drinks right at the beginning of the show. Once the comedians come out, service can slow down a bit, and you'll definitely want your drinks ready so you can just sit back and enjoy. I come here at least a few times a month and it's always worth it however because I come often I sometimes wish they didn't always have a 2 drink minimum.

Comics were great which is why it sucks that the latter half of our time was lackluster, we knew going in we would have to purchase something , but one gin-tonic (bombay) a ginger beer , a single pepsi and two waters being 75$ is outlandish by just about any standard. Come for the show but watch your wallet and drink heavily before hand to avoid sticker shock & always email your receipt My one caveat is i was thankful some of the staff was mindful and got the people in front of me to stop recording.

Although we were all technically legal adults, I still think there is something very sleazy about an authority figure in his 40s swaying 18 and 19 year old aspiring actors to perform nude with him. Of course, he tailored his messaging toward empowerment-- all bodies are great bodies, and all bodies are welcome. The reality, however, was that most of these students were recent L.A. arrivals with little working knowledge of the entertainment industry. It's hard not to recognize the power imbalances at play and potential vulnerabilities being exploited. Having said that, I will not disparage the talent that came out of these shows, and I will commend the owner's rules regarding privacy (no cameras allowed) and hygiene (towel is required).

Nude Comedy LA is a local small theater group that not only offers amazing entertainment, but practices all-inclusiveness, and body positivity as well. In addition to comedy nights, they also offer karaoke, open mic, various events via sponsors, and refreshments including wine!! Refreshments are cash preferred Niambi the goddess mc/hostess with the mostest and expecting mother-to-be is amazing! Great opener and all-around entertainer. Didn't get a chance to chat with her after the show but she's good vibes times ten. The parking in the area is very much street with both residential and metered spots down and around Tujunga Ave between Moorpark and Woodbridge. They do have restrooms inside though theme nights and shows don't typically run too long. Allen Levin, the owner, is a saint fielding calls for questions and managing sales and lineups. Definitely had a great and positive experience with NCLA and would attend again.

After coming off of multiple weeks of study at the grounding, I decided to take a break between Groundlings level one and Groundlings level two so I decided to do UCB 101 improv. This is a great way to break up your study of the funny in LA. It's a long-term approach and one that can sharpen different tools in your actors tool shed. Jessica Eason was everything for us in our one week intensive. She would let us go until we understood the game, then help us redefine different elements to ultimately make it easier for us to perform. The school is not about being funny. It's about understanding the game and trusting the game and your Scene Partner's. I cannot wait to take my next level 201 as our student show was a success and I'm grateful to have met so many wonderful friends who support each other. Amy Poehler be proud.

Two of the main acts didn't actually come so the lineup was different, the main headliner was still ON the board and didn't come and another act also no showed, both large names I was excited to see and the main point for going and purchasing tickets. They also put our phones in yonder bags which isn't really my favorite but if it's a big name and they want to be sure people aren't recording, fine, I GUESS. However.. there was no big name because both of them didn't show. I had somewhere to be at 10pm, and there's ZERO clocks around this place, phone is locked up, servers are nowhere to be found, it can get irritating just feeling like you're locked in a prison cell with 0 idea of the time. Finally tracked someone down, asked about Whitney Cummings, was told she wasn't coming, and then followed up with the time and it was already 10:10. They also over serve which is probably why they're locking up phones so you loose track of time and keep buying drinks. Guys next to me were PLASTERED, one guy left over and over again to throw up, the other guy was laughing like a hyena and screaming, the other friend had his head down on the table completely knocked out, and last friend went to lay down on the benches and knock out. Spent over $150 and didn't even see the comedians I paid to see. Really disappointing.
