In 1979, after a dispute over club owners refusing to pay comedians, teenager Jamie Masada recognized the need for a new venue and opened the Laugh Factory, making it the first comedy club to pay its performers.

Tuesday night
Went on a Friday night to see David Spade, Harland Williams, Caroline Rhea and others. Only do First Entry if you want to sit close and potentially interact with the acts and be part of the show. General Admission is good if you just want to see the show. 2 drink minimum, but you can just get soda if you don't want alcohol. Staff were all very nice. Show was funny and quirky.
Honestly… total waste of money. Huge ripoff. They make you buy a minimum of 2 items per person, which already feels annoying when the show isn’t even good(we spent $70 on top of the $80 for just general admin tickets). I went to the first “Okay or Not Okay” live show — and let’s just say, it was definitely not okay lol. The comedians just weren’t funny, and the whole thing just felt super forced. I barely laughed once. Save your money — there are way better comedy spots in LA that are actually worth it. If I could give 0 stars, I would. The show also started almost 30 minutes late.
VALET SERVICE IN FRONT OF THE CLUB. WE ACCEPT: CASH, CARDS , APPLE PAY.
