Event Details

“The Setup” Underground Comedy Show | SF

The Setup is an underground stand-up comedy show in the heart of San Francisco. This venue used to be the green room for the legendary Blackhawk jazz venue where Miles Davis used to play. Now, it’s a comedy show that features established comedians from around the country as well as local up-and-coming stars.

Every Thursday, Fridays & Saturdays | 8 pm
Ales Unlimited: Beer Basement, 222 Hyde St., SF, CA
$5 online, use the discount code FUNCHEAP. Otherwise, it’s $10.

San Francisco is known for indulging and incubating the absurd whims, oddities, and genius of the freaks who call it home. Think Lenny Bruce, Robin Williams, and Margaret Cho. In this crazy spirit, The Setup provides a truly unique and memorable San Francisco comedy experience.

The bar opens at 7 pm, and the show starts at 8 pm. Come early for cheap drinks and great seats.
