Who doesn't like a new neighbor, especially those who will make us laugh?
Opening on November 11, 2011, will be the Fort Lauderdale Comedy Club. This will be opening two blocks West of Dixie Highway at 840 East Oakland Park Boulevard, Unit 106 and brings a welcome cheer to the area.
Stand-Up Comedy tickets will go on sale with the first show to begin on November 11th. This is in response to a needed comedy venue in this market. Adding an opportunity for more entertainment here in the area, and tie-ins with major yearly gatherings like the Comic Retreat will help this become a showcase for emerging comics.
Quoting from their press release:
“With the bad economy people really need to laugh,” says Sebastian’s marketing manager Marion Bernard. “Fort Lauderdale Comedy Club will be hosting several live stand-up comedy shows each week appealing to everyone. We will be hosting a weekly senior show, a weekly late night “Blue” show featuring some of South Florida’s new comics.” said Bernard.
Stand-Up comedy fans can ensure discounts on tickets & drinks to upcoming shows by joining the new club’s Charter VIP Membership giving local fans more opportunities to experience live comedy.
VIP Memberships make a great holiday gift can be purchased at: http://chartervipmember.eventbrite.com/ or by going to the club’s website: www.FortLauderdaleComedyClub.com
