Huge night of comedy! Ryan Singer is headlining, featuring Mariah Davison, hosted by Kyle McGlothlin at 8pm. Followed by Late Late Breakfast at 10!

Ryan Singer is a comic's comic who electrifies mainstream audiences with material that is both uncompromising and unpretentious. He's been seen on IFC, ScFy and has released 4 full-length comedy albums, FREE LOVE (2018), IMMORTAL FOR NOW (2015), COMEDY WONDER TOWN (2012) and HOW TO GET HIGH WITHOUT DRUGS (2010), 3 of which were chosen as Top Comedy Album of the Year. He is the creator and host of the popular ME & PARANORMAL YOU, the twice-weekly mindcast (podcast) in which he has in-depth interviews with paranormal investigators, experiencers and members of secret societies. Selected by LA Weekly as one of "10 LA Comics to Watch", mentioned in NY Magazine as a "Comic to Watch," was one of 4 finalists in the original CMT's Next Big Comic Contest, is a frequent guest on the WTF Podcast w/Marc Maron and the Bob & Tom Show, and his joke "United Snacks of America" has nearly 11 million listens on Pandora.

******

Late Late Breakfast is a fast-paced standup show where comedians perform their material while contending with a bevy of bizarre challenges, rules, and objectives. It’s chaotic, unique, and never the same show twice! You might see anything, from a baseball game involving the entire audience, a comedian hooked up to a polygraph machine, or an impromptu mid-set karaoke session. Our show has been featured on the New York Comedy Festival, San Francisco Sketchfest, and happens monthly in Los Angeles.

Late Late Breakfast will feature comedy from Ryan Singer, Kent Carney, Mandee McKelvey, Cali Botkin, Dan Alten, Vidalia Unwin, Lucious Williams, and Kyle McGlothlin. There will also be two randomly selected spots for brave comedians that come to the show and want to test their mettle against our games!
