Last November, Beth Lapides celebrated the 25th anniversary of UnCabaret at the Theatre at the Ace Hotel. But what do you do after you’ve had your big party? You pick up where you left off and start a new residency. Which is exactly what she has done as UnCabaret now plays every second Sunday of the month at Rockwell Table and Stage in Los Feliz. The party continues this Sunday, April 14th.

UnCabaret celebrates comedy that is story-based and conversational. It is also fronted primarily by women, though not exclusively. Music is also a component of UnCabaret.

In the press release for the 25th anniversary event, this is how Lapides describes UnCabaret.  “It’s about community. The defining feature is people coming together, the joy of connection, what happens unexpectedly — it feels like a party.”

Lapides put together a Kickstarter video to help produce the 25th anniversary show. While that show has already happened, the video does give you an idea of what UnCabaret has offered for a quarter century.

This Sunday’s line-up features Kira Soltanovich (Girls Behaving Badly), Dana Gould (Stan Against Evil), Drew Droege (Chloe Sevigny parodies), Byron Bowers, James Bridges with musical guest Fire Chief Charlie. Mitch Kaplan is the Musical Director.

Not everyone in Los Angeles can be going to Coachella. Nor can you all be Game of Thrones fans. So if you’re looking for an alternative to the norm, try the Un. The UnCabaret. It’s our pick for your Best Bet This Weekend.

For tickets go here.
