About this Event

If you are easily triggered or a politically correct person - this is not the show for you :)

After the show we'll have music playing. Feel free to socialize and keep the party going after the show!

About the venue: Coffee shop by day, 21+ cocktail bar by night, Executive Order is an American-history-themed bar with antique sofas and revolutionary cocktails and with decor that pays tribute to likes of Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt.

F.A.Q.

Is there a drink or item minimum? To help support local bars and restaurants, there is a strongly suggested two drink minimum per person.

Suggested Donation? Yes. A handful of comedians that will be performing are visiting for Christmas from places such as Los Angeles, New York and Oakland. Dropping $20 cash in the tip jar for the Comedians is appreciated.

What time does the show start? We start shows no later than 10 MINUTES after the scheduled show time. We will aim to start the show exactly on time.

How's parking? We are located in Downtown SF next to Bloomingdale's. Using a rideshare app or Bart would be your best bet. There is also a parking garage across the street.

Is there a dress code? Upscale casual.

Can I order food? Yes! Browse the menu

Is the event 21+? Yes. Due to licensing restrictions the event is 21+ only.

Comedy Show Etiquette

No Flash Photography: It distracts and disorients everyone.

No texting during the show: It's rude. Go to the bar or the bathroom if it's important. Please show respect for your Comedians.

Do Not Heckle the Comedian: Heckling is interrupting the performance to upstage, disparage, or throw off the comedian. It is never acceptable, and the quickest way to ruin the show for everyone. It is also the quickest way to be humiliated in front of everyone.

Do Not Interrupt the Comedian: The common excuse for this is “I’m helping the comedian.” Comedians are professionals, they do not need help. That “help” just derails the show and wastes everyone’s time, same as heckling. Exception: If a comedian directly engages you in conversation, you are a-ok to respond. Some of the best comedy happens this way, and can make for a memorable experience. Be ready to let it go when the bit is over.

No Recording the Show: Same as a band, recording a stand-up routine violates the comic’s copyright on his material. Worse yet, a less-than-stellar performance some jerk puts up on the web can hurt the comic’s career. The infamous Michael Richards video is an extreme (justified in this rare case) example of footage released by a third party that ruins the performer’s career.
