The People's Republik of Komedy presents THE LOCAL BALLARD COMEDY SHOW &mdash a showcase of the best comedians in Seattle trying out new material in the safe confines of a mellow tea shop. Stop by and become part of the creative process! Or just drink some tea. Did we mention it was FREE?! Also, there's beer. Now you have no excuse. The second and fifth Friday of the month, at 9pm.

If you'd like to take part in the show, or just want to bitch talk about the Seattle comedy scene, this is the place for you.
