STAR SPANGLED BANTER Hits the Stage At The Den Theatre in June

The Den Theatre has announced Star Spangled Banter, a high-energy stand-up comedy showcase featuring some of the funniest and fiercest progressive voices on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, at 7:15 p.m. on the Heath Mainstage.

Ready to laugh and feel something? Star Spangled Banter is where sharp wit meets progressive firepower. Join us for a high-energy night of stand-up featuring some of the funniest left-leaning voices in comedy—Heather Gardner, Lisandra Vázquez, Suzanne Lambert, Tanner Devore, Elizabeth Booker Houston, and Josh Burstein—plus a surprise political guest who's sure to bring the heat.

This isn't just a comedy show—it's a cultural shift in real time. We're roasting the right, rallying the base, and making it very cool to care again. Think of it as your favorite campaign rally… if it had punchlines and a two-drink minimum.

She's hosted for esteemed platforms including HuffPost, AOL's Build, Variety, Yahoo Entertainment, Fandango/Rotten Tomatoes, and more. She is also an accomplished stand-up comedian with credits including The Comedy Store, The Hollywood Improv, Flappers, and more.
