Hitting the West Side
This Friday the famous Santa Monica Place mall reopens after 2 years of reconstruction. Located across the street from the more famous Third Street Promenade and two blocks from the even more famouser Santa Monica Pier, it’s new open air design is expected to bring quite a crowd. The pre-reconstructed mall has been seen in the TV show Beverly Hills 90210, and movies like Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Pretty In Pink and Terminator 2.
Coincidentally, the Magic Meathands and I just happen to be performing the very same night as the grand (re-)opening at the Westside Comedy Theater in Santa Monica! We hit the stage at 8 PM. Right after our show is The Waterbrains and then Westside Comedy Theater’s own Mission IMPROVable. Three full hours of improvised comedy for just $10! The theater is located in the alley between Third Street and Fourth Street, behind the food court off the Promenade.
It’s sure to be a lively night! Come on out!
WHEN: Friday, August 6, 8 PM
WHERE: Westside Comedy Theater, 1323-A Third Street, Santa Monica, CA 90401
WHAT: Live improv comedy
HOW MUCH: $10
