Featured in LA WEEKLY’S “All The Best Things To do in LA” it’s international comedy like you’ve never seen it before! Experience the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 90-minutes!!! The first US venue to take the plunge into the world of international stand-up comedy, Santa Monica Playhouse presents rotating lineups of seasoned, honed and hilariously entertaining comics just waiting to be discovered in the US. You won't see anything like this outside of Edinburgh, Melbourne, Sydney or Montreal.

Join us for complimentary cups of English tea served by your witty, well-traveled, award-winning hosts, Chris Martin (Brit) (“Destined for greatness!” Sunday Times) and Eric Lampaert (French) (“Extraordinary!” Chortle: The UK Comedy Guide), and a delicious mix of the funniest, smartest, cleverest - and often most provocative - stand-ups you’d never discover without a passport.

The second Thursday of every month, through December 2018. With a new line-up every time, make this your monthly dose of comedy! Kid friendly? Definitely not. Produced by Eric Lampaert, Chris Martin and Barbara Romen.

Santa Monica programs are sponsored in part by the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission, and by Playhouse PALS.
