What’s the best way to put Houston comedy on the map? Give comedians the tools they need to make it big. Throw in a few seasoned professionals and you’ve got a night of laughs in the bag.

Hosted by award-winning comic Barry Laminack, this free, monthly showcase features a rotating cast of local comedians bringing their best work to the stage to be recorded in front of a live audience (you!). It’s your chance support our city’s growing comedy scene—all while enjoying specials on our unique selection of craft beers and artisan pizzas.

The MKT Stand-up Showcase series culminates with The BETA Bracket, BETA Theater’s audience-judged stand-up comedy competition which kicks off in the fall. To make event-goers laugh, 10 hometown comics will go toe-to-toe in 5, 10 and eventually 20-minute sets for a chance to advance and ultimately claim $100, $500 or $2,000 in winnings.

MKT BAR’s comedy events are brought to you by BETA Theater, whose mission is to incubate world-class talent right here in Houston. Learn more at betatheater.com.
