Bridgetown Comedy Festival!


Be on the lookout Monday for announcements of some of the biggest names in this year's Bridgetown Comedy Festival, which is taking place April 23-26!

If you had a good time last year, you're going to want to get your tickets early for this year. We've got twice the venues, twice the performers, and five or six times the fun, give or take. The 2009 lineup includes more performers from all over the country, more podcasts, variety shows, sketch and video, and even a cast reunion of a cult classic Adult Swim show!

Stay tuned!
