No Comedy Walk this month, Fashion Walk instead

Comedy Walk won't have a show on September 17th due to venue scheduling issues.

Each month our biggest challenge putting together Comedy Walk is getting the venues we need. Our venue sponsors let us into spaces that would otherwise be dark. Sometimes we get fantastic theaters such as the New LATC, the Palace, and the Los Angeles Theater.

Comedy Walk venues can change right up to the last minute. That can get pretty exciting for me as executive producer. It's quite an adrenaline rush to find yourself asking the question, where can I find a performance space for a show that needs to start in ten minutes?

Comedy Walk performers are the best. They've have been supportive and understanding, even when I've been forced to ask them to perform in spaces that are not worthy of their talents. Comedy Walk comedians have huge hearts. I appreciate their unflagging enthusiasm to make downtown Los Angeles the best location for comedy.

All our moving around and uncertainty makes it challenging to mount a consistently high quality show and to publicize it properly. The best solution may be a permanent theater. Last year we came close to that goal. When that fell through, I put the show on hiatus. We're still negotiating for spaces that can afford to host us.

The next Comedy Walk is scheduled for October 15th, to be held in conjunction with Los Angeles Fashion Week. I don't have an answer yet on Comedy Walk venues for October. Please stay tuned.
