Acme Comedy Club

WANNA LAUGH UNTIL YOUR BELLY ACHES?

Hey there you guys. I may be preaching to the choir here about the ACME, I love it so much I feel sure the whole world knows about it, this little unpretentious 99 seat joint that used to be a Synagogue once upon a time. The comedy club, you can barely see from the street has been turning out the likes of Wayne Brady and Drew Carey What's My Line Stars and later Emmy winners. I've seen them so many times I feel real up close and personal ya know. This place is extremely cool, Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks watched Nia Vardalos perform a once little known one man show My Big Fat Greek Wedding here and anywhere in this in the toilet economy that gives great laughs for 10 bucks rocks in my mind.

In LA where most things are still all about de money this place is a school for stand up, the home to a host of improv troupes and anyone with a dream can hire it out to produce their own TV show. (fully equipped for high quality filming)

I frequent this unaustere venue one a month, at least and the guys all chip in for a pizza at Amalfi next door after the show where the jazz is awesome-the place has Nat King Cole history so the rumours go.

The Friday shows, 8pm, 9pm and 10pm are usually sold out so buy tickets ahead of time online at the website and prepare to laugh out loud big style.

If you don't love it you can all kill me:) NOT
