West Hollywood & Mid-City
There’s no comedy club in the city with more street cred than Sammy and Mitzi Shore’s Comedy Store on the strip. Sammy launched the club, but Mitzi was the one who brought in hot young comics such as Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Eddie Murphy, Robin Williams and David Letterman. There are three stages, meaning something's on just about every night.
These days Mitzi's son, Pauly, runs it, and it still gigs in this generation's big names: Marc Maron, Helen Hong, Dane Cook, Ali Wong and more.
