    We stumbled upon this little hidden gem by accident on our way to Birdie G's. We ended up at the crow and it was comedy night and it was kind of ironic because earlier when we were looking for Birdie G's we met this guy on a Harley who was here for the comedy show and I'm like there's a comedy show here? So, boom we ended up at the Crow we found out. They still had tickets available so we bought tickets and couple of beers and there you go... The comics were hysterical. Of course they picked on my guy. He wouldn't stop raising his hand so that's his problem... But it was a really cool vibe... artsy in the art district of Santa Monica LBGTQ plus friendly and you know selling all like beers that are aligned with the same core values as myself making sure that everybody's inclusive it was great. It was a good night. We laughed our butts off.

    I had the honor of attending an event at The Crow last night for my friend Elissa Kalver's book launch (btw go pre-order it - We Got This, to read about how she learned to thrive with terminal cancer). Through Elissa I'd heard of Nicole's non-profit, Storyectomy, which helps people cope with their cancer experience - be they a survivor, a thriver, or a caregiver. As part of the night we heard from several "graduates" of Storyectomy, and what a powerful event! Through them I heard traces of my own experience; cancer is awful and I hate that it's this nebulous horrible thing that connects so many of us, but it's great knowing there are communities out there to help us cope and adapt. While I wasn't there for a typical event, I think this venue is fantastic, and dare I say it the founder is even more so. Thank you for giving people a place to share their voice.

    One of my new fave biz to support. Attended a couple of shows for the first time this year & love supporting it! A lot of free parking, 2 eateries in the lot, and the comedy here is great. I have been to 3 shows and am looking fwd to my 4th. They have a bar. Tix prices are pretty reasonable. I wish I had come here soooooooner. They are doing awesome things here for comedy, the community, and local biz.

    What a fun and supportive place to do an open mic! I had been so rusty and not prepared for some material but wanted to get up and perform. Great talented and supportive group of women! So happy this is up on the westside and I will definitely be a regular. I've got a lot to work on lol! Very excited to have found this place!

    Went to The Crow on Sunday afternoon to see a staged reading of "Our Town" by Thornton Wilder. It was hard to tell who enjoyed the show more, the audience or the cast. The lady who created The Crow spoke before the show began. It's quite wonderful people create venues where people who have that very special talent of being able to entertain others can entertain others. The Crow is a small enough venue for the audience to actually be able see the actors. My younger brother is in show business. He lives in New York City and won a Tony a few years ago. He goes to shows almost every night. He would have noticed all sorts of marvelous things about this show I didn't notice because I am not in show business.

    SNL standup comedy like show that "The Phoenix" invited me to and we sat through it and it was fun for the most part. The space was perfect size not too big or too much space. Interesting and good service.

    Fun location. Nice staff. Nice space. The night I attended the comedians were funny. It's not really a food venue: I think they have cookies for sale along with beer. Hopefully they'll get better chairs soon. Metal on concrete is loud in a performance space. The space feels new still. I hope it succeeds.

Read on: In an email that mentioned the Irvine Improv in large type, I received an offer for free tickets to any of several comedy shows at various local venues. The Improv was not the sender, as stated within. I chose my show, purchased two passes, and paid a $3 service fee for each. I phoned the venue to confirm date/time. The poor woman who answered had no idea what I was talking about. The venue was correct, but those who booked it did not list their own telephone number. At this point, I realized that there may--or may not--be a show, this may be a scam. On the day of the show, I paid a sitter, drove out to the venue, paid for parking, and stood in line for an hour. When it was my turn to go in, I was ushered to the side to see a lady (Dee). Dee explained that the show was oversold and that my tickets had been refunded. She was very sorry, it was not her fault that I was not contacted and told this in advance/over the phone. It was not her company's fault. It was everyone else's fault. Read on. I emailed Laughstub a couple of times to confirm that my $6 fee was refunded and got no response. Today, I phoned Laughstub and got Dee. Lucky me. Dee explained how I was in the wrong in every way: I should not have used email. I should not have emailed the address with which I had corresponded in the past (funny, she did not volunteer a correct email). I should have known that the fine print states that there are no refunds on the $6 fee. I should know that paid tickets get precedence over free tickets. I should know that it's stupid of me to tell her I won't use her company anymore and will avoid it, because that's like saying I won't use Windows anymore. (ps, what is Windows? Looked for it all over my Mac and it does not seem to be installed...) I should know that it's the client's (Comedy Central's) fault and that this is how they choose to handle the problem, not Laughstub's bla bla bla. The list goes on, but I have tired you, dear reader. I am staying so far away from anything promoted by or associated with LAUGHSTUB, it's not even funny!!!

I…read morearrived to the theatre only to find out that the director had decided to cancel the show and turn it into a dress rehersel. This is information you need to let people know earlier in the day not wait until they waste their time and gas money and arrive at the box office. The girl running the box office was apoigetic and nice. Someone associated from the production was trying to have the people that did buy tickets be able to sit through the rehersal since it would be a full run-through. He later told me that he was overruled and it was a no go. I did receive a refund, but even the refund doesn't cover the price of gas that was spent and sitting in traffic driving there and driving back. Not to mention there are different things I could have done with my day if i wasn't going to attend this show. Astronomical unprofessionalism and zero regard for the audience's time and frankly money. If you have already purchased tickets to one of their performances I highly recommend that you confirm if the show is still going on so your time isn't wasted. I have to say out of all of the plays I have seen in LA this is one of the worst experiences I've ever had. I won't be going to any future plays put on by this production company. Do better. This is pretty disgusting.

The Iranian-American playwright Houshang Touzie and his production company, Work Shop 79, are presenting his latest play at Odyssey this weekend, and I attended their rehearsal last night to be part of it. What I love most about Odyssey is that every seat is a "good seat." The lighting director and the sound engineer were busy setting everything up, and I sat silently in the darkness, watching everything come together in preparation for what was to come this weekend. Thank you, Odyssey, for welcoming plays from other cultures and languages into your theater.

    A hidden gem. Let's jump right into this review…read more The Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles is a renowned, non-profit theater known for intimate productions of classic and contemporary plays, new works, and educational programs. Two main spaces, the 500-seat Gil Cates Theater and the smaller Audrey Skirball-Kenis Theater. My son and I attended a play - Table 17 and sat in the balcony box of the Gil Cates Theater. Box seats $139pp Pros 1. Very nice venue. An intimate space with every seat being a good seat. Great acoustics also. 2. Bathrooms are clean and grounds are well-kept. 3. Small bar area that sells food items and drink, including alcohol. 4. Patio area and seating in the lobby if you arrive early. Doors usually open 1 hour before showtime. Theater doors open 30 minutes before curtain time. Cons 1. Parking can be a challenge but not impossible. Metered street parking. Use the text to pay function because you can add additional time from your phone and receive reminders via text when your time is about to expire. There are also paid parking lots within walking distance. Prices will vary. I was impressed with Geffen Playhouse and will definitely be back. BTW - Table 17 was an amazing play - funny, thought provoking, and an attention grabber.

    Still a great venue for great performances. Great staff & great intimate room with great comfort…read moreseat. Love the courtyard for drinks prior & intermission period. Big and clean restrooms. Great refreshment choices. Parking can be tricky, you can park in the garage next door for pay, or street parking for pay (depending on the hours of the day & day of the week), or you can park in neighborhood street parking (free) couple blocks away. The venue is close by market with food vendors or nearby restaurants and museum. Really enjoy every time I'm here seeing a play.
