The Setup Comedy features a showcase of six to seven of the funniest comedians around. But this isn’t your average stand-up comedy show in Los Angeles. The Setup is upgrading the stand-up comedy experience, setting their show in a speakeasy (simply called “The Cocktail Lounge”) attached to one of Hollywood’s most iconic and intimate venues: The Bourbon Room (6356 Hollywood Blvd 2nd floor).
How Two Stand-Up Comedians Started The Setup
The Setup was started in 2015 by veteran stand-up comedians Richard Sarvate and Abhay Nadkarni. You may recognize Sarvate from his hilarious TikTok series “Night of the Living Karens,” and Abhay Nadkarni is the co-creator of the largest South Asian comedy festival in the country, Desi Comedy Fest.
Since its founding, The Setup has since become a national stand-up comedy brand. Always located in the classiest venues, The Setup has made a name for themselves as one of the go-to spots for both big names and up-and-comers.
Stand-Up Comedy At The Bourbon Room
The Bourbon Room has long been a venue for local Los Angeles comedy talents and legends like Patton Oswalt, Bill Burr, and Tiffany Hadish. It has also put on top-tier concerts and performances like Drag: The Musical.
The Bourbon Room is located in the heart of Hollywood, so you can easily make this evening of comedy a whole night out. The venue also offers delicious cocktails and small bites as you enjoy the show.
