Each month, we showcase a fresh lineup of talented stand-up comedians, from rising stars to seasoned pros, many with credits from comedy festivals, TV, and top clubs across New England and beyond. You never know who might take the stage, but we guarantee one thing: you'll leave smiling.

This month features Chris Pennie, Dan Donahue, and Ethan Printz and musical guest Andrew Klosenski .

Chris Pennie is a lifelong bachelor and single dad, Chris Pennie turns the chaos of parenting and family life into sharp, relatable comedy. A veteran since 2005, he's been a finalist in CMT's Next Big Comic, the Boston Comedy Festival, and the Laughing Skull Festival.

Dan Donahue commands the stage with both his size and his sharp comedic timing. A standout performer across New England, he's brought big laughs to venues like the Capitol Center for the Arts, Tupelo Music Hall, and The Spire in Plymouth, as well as countless fundraisers and private events. Whether in a packed theater or an intimate room, Dan's larger-than-life presence guarantees a memorable show.

At just fifteen, Ethan Printz turns the chaos of teenage life into laugh-out-loud comedy. Despite his young age, he's already performed at top venues like Giggles Comedy Club, Tupelo Music Hall, and Nick's Comedy Stop, earning attention from Radio Results Network and The Daily News for his father-son show, A Night with the Printz's.

The night kicks off with live music from Andy Klosenski, a beloved local artist known for his soulful vocals and rich blend of folk, rock, and Americana. His heartfelt performance sets the tone perfectly before the comedians take the stage for a night of big laughs.

Doors open at 7:00 pm with Live Music | Stand-Up starts at 8:00 pm.

You can bring your beverage of choice (BYOB) and we provide a healthy light menu to snack on, for purchase. Seltzers, sodas, and mixers also available. (No "bar" tab.) We have both cafe and lounge seating and a game room.
