Crow’s Nest: Santa Cruz

Coming down to the wire, Preliminary Round Two ends at what will surely be a packed Crow’s Nest.
This round attract touring headliners fron out of the area. You get an excellent idea of the emerging comedy scene.
A photo finish is expected.
What a place to announce the second five Semifinalists at the end of the evening, at the best restaurant in town.
The Crows Nest has earned a reputation of being a very notorious venue. It’s close to the water which is good because someone might sleep with the fishes tonight.
As a final night at the competition. Some comics are giving it their all for a chance to break into the Semifinals. Some kick back and enjoy themselves. Some of them have snap sets where all the stress of the week comes out, but the audience enjoys it either way.
It’s a fantastic show and not one to miss. This is also one of the only opportunities to see all 30 comics in one venue.
We have 15 comics on the bill. Five advance to the Semifinals. The rest go home.
Tickets are only available at the door so come early.
