Lez Stand Up: Lesbian New Year's Eve!
Recommended
Here’s an unpopular opinion: I hate New Year’s Eve. HATE IT. I hate those dumb giant 20-whatever sunglasses, I hate that all that trash gets dumped on Times Square, I don’t like feeling obligated to stay up until midnight, and, OH YEAH, I HATE FIREWORKS. For this reason, I generally spend New Year’s Eve in a remote mountain cabin where I can slowly enjoy a beer while reading in a comfy chair as the snow falls outside. This year, though, I feel a tinge of regret about my hermit tradition, because genius queer-friendly comedy troupe Lez Stand Up is hosting a New Year’s Eve party, and—no surprise here—it looks fucking fantastic. Improve the worst night of the year with a little feminist gravitas and delightful jokes from Caitlin Weierhauser, Mel Heywood, Kirsten Kuppenbender, Laura Anne Whitley, and special guest Daniel Martin Austin, plus sketch comedy. EVEN BETTER: This show ends at 10 pm sharp, so you have the option of going to bed early. Party on! MEGAN BURBANK
