I received word the other day that Comedy Sportz LA might be shutting down. It could happen as early as October.
Apparently, with the rough economy and stiff competition, Comedy Sportz has not been able to stay on top like in years past. I've been to many different comedy and improv spots in Los Angeles, and I can honestly say, without hesitation, that Comedy Sportz is the best of the best. They have the greatest staff and a fantastic facility, and it would be a shame for them to go away.
They are starting a campaign called 'The Last Laugh'. Everyone is encouraged to come out and see an Comedy Sportz show. With a little luck, they'll get enough response and support to say in business through the end of this year -- and possibly even longer. If anybody wants to fly out and see a show with me, let me know :) Or feel free to send me $20 and I'll be sure to fill your seat with pride. :)
My heart and support goes out to all my friends (many of which are originally from Milwaukee!) that are going through tough times at Comedy Sportz.
Here's hoping that October won't be Comedy Sportz LA's last laugh...
