Last Hurrah to Host Open Mic Comedy, 8/30

This Sunday August 30, 2015 at 7pm, The Last Hurrah is furthering its efforts to cultivate local comedy by hosting their first Monthly Comedy Open Mic Night. On the last Sunday of every month, The Last Hurrah will open their doors to anyone from stand up comics, to sketch performers and improv teams looking to get some practice in front of an audience. Performers will be given 5-10 minutes of time in the Maryland Ensemble Theatre's Stage 2 space, and as always The Last Hurrah is absolutely free to attend.

The Last Hurrah is an original comedy show created as a part of the Maryland Ensemble Theatre's MET-X series. MET-X programming, usually self-produced by Ensemble Members, is created outside of MET's mainstage season and expands the collective horizons of the Ensemble and its audience. The Last Hurrah aims to bring free comedy to Frederick every Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Maryland Ensemble Theatre (31 W. Patrick St., Frederick) located in the historic FSK Hotel. Admission is free. Every episode of The Last Hurrah is recorded and released as a podcast on iTunes the following Tuesday.

Maryland Ensemble Theatre produces thought-provoking theatre, fun family entertainment, artist residency programs for public schools, theatre camps, challenging classes and sidesplitting comedy.
