Description:

The low ceilings and unusual layout of this basement club give it a definite Bohemian feel and, in this age of corporate comedy venues, it's all the better for that. The audiences sits haphazardly on rows of seating, tables and even ledges, giving this intimate and effective venue a very pleasant comedy atmosphere.
