Darlings, 

We’re snugly in the second week of January and the treading on the territory where using “happy new year” as a greeting is a bit questionable. GeT CreAtive! Maybe next time try, “I haven’t seen you since last YEAR!” and then grip your stomach as intense, unstoppable laughter pushes out of your mouth and into 2024. You can also say, “Hi!” and then just sort of organically feel out conversation but honestly, we don’t recommend that approach. Another potential greeting could be: “Hey buddy! Wanna catch a show with me at Dynasty this week?” 

And then they’d say, “Hmm, like what?”

Then you could say: Well,
 

TONIGHT! WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: Funny AF A live comedy show for millennials featuring stand-up comedy to scratch your nostalgia itch from JOEL KIM BOOSTER, NORI REED, JOSH TUREK, ALYSSA LIMPERIS and JACK QUAID and a game with JODIE SWEETIN (Full House). With your 30-something hosts: GLENNIS LAROE (Limestone Comedy Festival) and JENNY GORELICK (Comedy Central) The vibes will be immaculate.

 

THURSDAY, 7:30PM: Self Help Me w/ JENNY YANG: A Competitive Self Care Comedy Show SELF HELP ME is a competitive self-care comedy show hosted by comedian, writer and actor Jenny Yang. Every show features comedians, celebrities and wellness experts ready to test their knowledge of the latest wellness trends and reveal their own self-care obsessions. It’s like if Lovett or Leave It and @ midnight made a baby that was obsessed with wellness and lymph node massages–but also cared about the cultures and origins of these splashy trends. 

Self-care already felt competitive. We just made our anxieties into a show.

“What’s the point of self-care if you can’t win? Do you even charge your crystals, bro?”  – JENNY YANG | HOST + LIFESTYLE DIRECTOR

Haaappy New Yearrrr! 

And to those of you who celebrated with us at the theater in epic sold-out fashion, an EXTRA happy new year. We had the time of our life Sunday/into Monday- JAM(ie) hosted with flarpin’ aplomb, which grew aplombier (drunker?) by the hour, the line-up was ALL STAR (meaning, a group of top-notch shining talented humans, not having anything to do with the Smash Mouth HIT, RIP), the DyNasties (led by b-day boy and now our full time Head of Productions Sam) were dynamite (and/though they didn’t play “All Star” by Smash Mouth), the audience was sweetie-pie HQ, the vibe was so very New Year’s, and the only mouths gettin’ smashed were the firm kisses of lovers n’ dreamers welcoming the new year. VAN(essa) was sadly on the WRONG COAST but watched all the security cameras like a freak, which is honestly the next best thing. Oh, and GM Missy now has a 5th career as a balloon installation artist (honestly, we all saw this coming miles away). 

For those who observe/are destroyed by Mercury Retrograde... it's now over! So if you’ve been mired in a low-key (or high key) shitshow for the last little while, perhaps a new leaf is about to turn. And we’re praying for a looooovely leaf full of health and vitality and creativity and output and expression! (Or a WaCkY TobAckkkkiE leaf LOL! Maybe that’s what the Smash Mouth fellers were smoking when they penned that gorgeous earworm. LOL! 🪱) 

We’re PUMPED about 2024, if scarred by the swiftly punctured optimism of years past (looking at you, 2020.) May this be the year we have more creative output, actualize more characters from the DynaVerse, make our plumber (plumbeAr!? how are we just now seeing that? of course he’s a plumbear) Sludgy™ an INTERNATIONAL BATHROOM ETIQUETTE SENSATION, produce more specials, keep innovating in the corn-space, and get abs all over our bodies. We want our forearms to have a 16 pack. 

Now, to interrupt our musings, our programming! 

( And honey, we’re buzzin’ that the first week of the year includes ZACH GALIFIANAKIS, a ROCK OPERA, classes/workshops with comedy legend KEVIN MCDONALD, THOMAS LENNON and MORE!)

‍♀️ TONIGHT! TUESDAY, 7:30PM: DOUG BENSONS Movie Interruption

DOUG BENSON (SUPER HIGH ME, @midnight) and some of his comedy friends are gonna sit in the front row of the theater with mics, cracking wise during a screening of a movie that YOU choose. That’s right, audience members are encouraged to bring a dvd/blu ray of a film they would like to see ripped apart (lovingly) and a vote will be held to determine which one we watch.

TONIGHT IS STARRRR STUDDED!

Hoooowwweeee, Hey Holiday Honeys! 

Hope you’re ready to enjoy this whirlwind of a week, ya lil’ winter wonderfuls. We’ve got a real blizzard of shows in our forecast so bundle up in a nest of corn and let yourself be entertainnnnned. Oh, us? We’re doing just fine ‘round these parts. The Van[essa] half has been traveling and has tromped through many rings of hell and has, in the process, created a list of names for the naughty list that needs to get to Santa’s blood-thirsty vengeance team STAT. (Looking at you, United gate agent who refused to let Herbert (a perfect soul who happened to be born in a dog body) who had a ticket, fly! And YOU, middle seat person who opened a huge bag of honey mustard pretzels and promptly fell into a spasm-ridden sleep, sprinkling Vanessa with pretzel shrapnel at unpredictable intervals. And YOU, mall Santa who cannot be bothered to pretend to be Santa…. WHY ARE YOU DRESSED UP AS SANTA!?)

But, as always, there is also a list of absolute angels who deserves stockings stuffed with adorable baby animals who cater to their every whim. Lookin' at you, absolute QUEEN at Delta who understood that Herbert is a perfect soul/dog. And the man in Minneapolis who let Herbert and Vanessa ride the little airport car and catch the flight! And, of course Herbert himself, who if not technically considered a Psychological Service Dog prior to this date, has certainly earned the distinction now. Vanessa having hair left on her head, and the Pretzel Person’s survival are absolute proof. Submit your naughty and nice lists to Dynasty for a chance to win tickets to our New Year’s event! 

As for the Jam[ie] half, he's now at 12 consecutive days of yoga after taking 3 months off to carboload, training his body for the aforementioned New Year’s event, which he will sadly be hosting without his partner in crime who will be focused on retribution! Will he get the proper conditioning over the next 13 days to keep up the stamina and energy required to deliver a magical journey through the outer membrane of '23 into the inner membrane of '24? You'll have to attend to find out! In any case, there will be A LOT of membrane talk at the show and THAT'S The Dynasty Difference!™ ;)

🥂 Did someone say Dynasty New Year’s event?! Yes! The fun starts at 9pm, with an amazing line-up of some of our favorite stand-ups, our house band The DyNasties playing music all night, a champagne toast, a magical midnight manifestation ceremony, and lots of surprises! We’d love to ring 2024 with you, so make sure to get your pre-sale tickets before it sells out! Hosted by ToastMaster General, JAMIE FLAM!

With Special Guests
APARNA NANCHERLA (BoJack Horseman)
IFY NWADIWE (Candy Dinner)

FRIDAY, 7:30PM: Wellness Check w/ JOHN HILL Broadway and SiriusXM star John Hill (Original Broadway cast of “Hairspray,” Original Broadway Cast “the Boy From Oz,” original NYC cast “bare: a pop opera) takes you on a musical whirlwind through his life as a walking trauma response. From growing up a child geisha in Texas, to being stalked by a sexual predator at Six Flags, to on-air hot-mic moments from his nearly ten years as Andy Cohen’s live morning radio show co-host. All set to original songs written and performed by John Hill, direction by Tony Award winner MARISSA JARET WINOKUR and special guest CHRIS CHIANESI. We can’t wait!

Nicely,

Holi-Darlings-

Is anyone else sleeping with scotch tape over their mouth at night because they read the first 40 pages of a book they were gifted called "Breath" which suggests that it could be a game changer for your persistent insomnia? No one? Ok. Well, after a week, the results over here have been middling. Which is honestly an improvement! So that's a thing! Other 200 seat venues might not have the TEMERITY to set off their weekly e-blast with an unverified sleep tip, but here we are. And THAT's... The Dynasty Difference!™. Note from Dynasty's legal team: Do your own research and proceed at your own risk (or at least wait until we've read more of the book) before moving forward with putting tape over your mouth in ANY situation. Don't worry, this newsie is not AT ALL "off the rails." It's exactly on the rails. Which is a nice transition point into a new word we've been trying out that we'd love to share: "Oopsolutely!" It's a great and fun term you can use when you want/need to lightheartedly DOUBLE DOWN on a mistake. Try it out and report back on it's effectiveness for your chance to win free tickets to an upcoming show! (This offer is also extended to anyone that wants to send us their own hacks for a goodnight sleep!)

Speaking of upcoming shows, let this also be our *OFFICIAL* announcement that we're doing our first New Year's Eve show since 2020, and… not to brag, but we’ve got some flarpin’ high hopes this one won’t ring in a pandemic! In classic form we'll be doing it on December 31st! The fun starts at 9pm, with an amazing line-up of some of our favorite stand-ups, our house band The DyNasties playing music all night, a champagne toast, a magical midnight manifestation ceremony, and lots of surprises! We'd love to ring 2024 with you, so make sure to get your pre-sale tickets before it sells out

Lastly, we got unannounced drop-ins last week from Triumph The Insult Comic Dog, Bob Odenkirk, and Rainn Wilson. A special reminder that you never know who's gonna show up or what's going to happen [or what sleep hacks you will receive from/at] Dynasty. And THAT's... The Dynasty Difference!™ Note from Dynasty's legal team: Notice the trademark symbol on your favorite new catchphrase before you try to bootleg snazzy t-shirts. Snazzy t-shirts coming soon!

It’s the 200th episode of LEIGHTON NIGHT with BRIAN WECHT, and we’re doing it as a live show with special guest JACOB “ALPHARAD” RABON! Given the amount of preparation we typically put in to our episodes, it’s hard to say exactly what will happen, but you can expect a total lack of bits. Once again, this show will feature NO BITS. It will, however, feature Alpharad.
 

FRIDAY, 7:30PM: The Fast and the Furious: A Musical Parody After a sold out pre-pandemic run LA’s boldest baldest musical is back with a vengeance and a revamped second act. New songs! New dances! Same dumb premise! Come watch your favorite car-driving gang members battle their greatest foe yet– singing and dancing at the same time.

In this unauthorized parody that is in no way connected to the very profitable Universal property, Dominic Toretto and his team (The Rock, Tyrese, Michelle Rodriguez, and Ludacris) do what they do best: commit crimes. And what they do second best: solve crimes. And what they do third best: harmonize. If you want to watch one of the films to prepare, we suggest ALL OF THEM *but actually the 8th movie, The Fate of the Furious.

December Darlings, 

Welcome to DECEMBER. She’s a a fast and furious show pony of a month, isn’t she? Just hoofin’ around, somehow making us all feel both excited and inadequate, blessed n’ stressed, hot n’ high stepping, but with inevitable horse shit. Hopefully you’re able to avoid the shit (uncomfortable interactions with bizarre relatives? Getting the absolute worst gift in a white elephant? Giving the absolute worst gift in a white elephant? Being calllllled a white elephant by a bizarre relative?!) and will be able to just prance through the season spreadin’ and gettin’ all the light n' love. Over here in Dynastyland, we’re celebrating the season with a stacked (and adorable!) calendar of programming! Scroll down for a peep, Designer Dan outdid himself on some of these show graphics! And we're proud to announce a new seasonal DynaPop! topping! It’s called CORNAMENT! and it’s the perfect non-denominational way to ring in the holidays! DynaPop! topped with dark chocolate covered pretzels, gingerbread, peppermint marshmallows, tinnnnny cookies, and milk chocolate m+m's! Why stuff a stocking when you can STUFF YER FLARPIN’ FACE?

Then stuff our DONATION BOX with things for folks who need ‘em. Your unhoused neighbors need your winter weather wear! Cold and rainy months in L.A. are especially hard when you're living on the street. Now is a great time to donate lightly used jackets, jeans, sneakers, and belts. Bring your cold weather gear to drop off before the next show you see at Dynasty, and we'll make sure your unhoused neighbors stay warm this year in partnership with SELAH Neighborhood Homeless Coalition. 

Then, stuff your SOUL with beautiful holiday programming!


TONIGHT! MONDAY, 7:30PM: Outrageous: Showbiz and the Culture Wars: KLIPH NESTEROFF Book Launch 

With Special Guests
JAMES URBANIAK
BLAINE CAPATCH

There is a common belief that we live in unprecedented times, that nobody got offended in the past, that people are simply too sensitive today, that racism and sexism were once widely accepted without objection. Kliph Nesteroff’s OUTRAGEOUS reveals that the truth is precisely the opposite. OUTRAGEOUS chronicles the controversies of American show business and the ongoing attempts to change what we watch, read, and hear. Among the many other hysteria-oriented subjects covered in the book are the attempted censorship or suppression of Mae West, Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Chubby
Checker, MTV, Welcome Back Kotter, Three’s Company, Monty Python’s Life of Brian, The Adventures of Mighty Mouse, Beavis and Butthead, The Simpsons, and much more.

 

WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: Comedy Pole Show - Holiday Extravaganza  CHRISTINA CALPH (Arthur, Blacklist) hosts an all-star lineup of comedians and pole dancers at the iconic Dynasty Typewriter!

This hilarious and heartfelt show highlights the beauty of awe and wonder while casting light on how misdirection can sneak into our lives where we least expect it. Directed by CHIPPER LOWELL
 

10:00PM: GABE  & ALDEN’S Holiday Party Two roommates attempt to host a lavish holiday party to win a local contest, but things go awry when the colorful cast of characters go off script. “Gabe & Alden’s Holiday Party” is a full-blown one act musical in the style of a 50’s Christmas special, featuring all original songs. 

Starring ALDEN DERCK, GABE GIBBS, MICHAEL MILLAN, BETSY STEWART, ANISHA JAGANNATHAN, and VIC MICHAELIS. Book, Music and Lyrics by ALDEN DERCK and GABE GIBBS. Directed by PATRICK MUHLBERGER. Choreography by KELSEY FLYNN. Produced by LAUREN CORTIZO and KATIE BARSOTTI.

If you’ve ever wondered what awkward first kisses have to do with the practice chanter, or a peanut butter blowjob has to do with the bag, then this is the show for you.

Dear Darlings, 

Hello, holiday honeyyyys! We’re writing you The Last Newsie of November, because it’s almost December, because time means nothing, and because the impossible IS, apparently, possible. Hope you’re all feeling as light n’ lovely as a critter can after surviving one of the most intense onslaughts of corporate emails and mass marketing texts urging you to get things before it’s toooo laaaate! (Look, we tried not to be too annoying but OUR sale is still going on today, promo code is Batshit! But we’re a small business, so it’s different? We say "Yes!" And we also say "our sale comes with actual small animal bones!" and we also say "That's The Dynasty Difference!™) “BUY BUY BUY” the world screams, as we teeter on our axis and whirl into the cosmos! “YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR LIFE IF YOU BUYYYYYYYY” the screens who are our FRIENDS scream at us as we look to them for human connection. Would our friends (the screens) lie to us!? Surely not! And so, with our saved credit card info attached to our face ID, we robotically spend and believe we are saving… not just dollar-bucks, but EVERYTHING. The world. Ok, as spiritual humans, we know the real truth, we understand we can’t save the world through purchases and ultimately can only control our perception. But we perceive things so much better in matching holiday jammies! 🫠 And did we mention that our own Dynasty deals (T-shirts! Totes! RAT BONES!) are still available at Batshit prices? We did? Great! Sorry! Great! But honestly, no presh! ;)

Shifting to non-capitalist vibes, we had a nice lil’ break and enjoyed the company and comfort of friends, family, and foods. Grammy’s sweet n’ all, but nobody hugs as warm and clumpy as marshed potaters. 

Here are some actual human experiences we recommend this week: 

THIS WEEK AT DYNASTY 🤚 

 WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: Ask Us Anything! LIVE AND LIVE-STREAMED!  
Join MAE MARTIN, ALANA JOHNSTON and KAYLA LORETTE as they do improv based on personal questions asked by the audience! Before the show, audience members will write down any questions they have for the performers and those questions will be used as inspiration for improv scenes. Just when you think this couldn’t get any more fun, the show will end with an improvised, dramatic pilot that will never air (except on the livestream as you watch it.) 

 

THURSDAY, 7:30PM: The Fast and the Furious: A Musical Parody After a sold out pre-pandemic run LA’s boldest baldest musical is back with a vengeance and a revamped second act. New songs! New dances! Same dumb premise!

Come watch your favorite car-driving gang members battle their greatest foe yet– singing and dancing at the same time. In this unauthorized parody that is in no way connected to the very profitable Universal property, Dominic Toretto and his team (The Rock, Tyrese, Michelle Rodriguez, and Ludacris) do what they do best: commit crimes. And what they do second best: solve crimes. And what they do third best: harmonize.

If you want to watch one of the films to prepare, we suggest ALL OF THEM *but actually the 8th movie, The Fate of the Furious.
 

FRIDAY, 7:30PM: MARC MARON The man, the myth, the Maron is *SOLD OUT*

Back on December 13th and 28th!

SATURDAY, 4:00PM: EDEN SHER: I Was On A Sitcom

I Was On A Sitcom is a show about finding out who you are when your TV show ends and your “real life” begins. Because when you’ve played a character on TV for a decade, what exactly does it mean to “be yourself?” This show offers a rare intimate glimpse inside a popular sitcom actor’s real, raw life. You will walk away feeling like you’ve made a new friend — and learned more about birthing twins than you ever did before. It’s funny, it’s dark, vulnerable, and disarmingly casual — it’s like having a night out with Eden herself, telling you a story over drinks. 
 

7:30PM: Mortified: 20th Anniversary Show Celebrate two decades of angst at this special edition of Mortified. Hailed a “cultural phenomenon” by Newsweek and celebrated by This American Life, Entertainment Weekly, Time, Wired, The AV Club, The Today Show (twice), and beyond. Witness adults sharing their most embarrassing childhood artifacts (journals, letters, poems, lyrics, plays, home movies, art) in front of total strangers. Hear grown men and women confront their past with tales of their first kiss, first puff, worst prom, fights with mom, life at bible camp, worst hand job, best mall job, and reasons they deserved to marry Jon Bon Jovi. Visit getmortified.com.

 

SUNDAY, 4:00PM: Sad Boyz *SOLD OUT* Will this make them happy? Prolly not.  


 7:30PM: The Weird and Wonderful World of Industrial Musicals
 Diesel Dazzle… Got to Investigate Silicones…The Bathrooms Are Coming…? Welcome to the bonkers alternate universe of industrial musical theater, presented by Letterman and Simpsons writer STEVE YOUNG Steve discovered corporate musicals while gathering obscure albums for the Letterman show’s “Dave’s Record Collection” comedy bit. Years later, Steve is the world’s authority on the bizarrely entertaining shows created for company conventions and sales meetings from the 50’s to the 80’s that the public was never meant to see or hear. Steve, the star of Dava Whisenant’s award-winning documentary Bathtubs Over Broadway, loves to bring the jaw-dropping delights of industrial musicals to audiences around the country, featuring ultra-rare films from his collection that can’t be seen anywhere else. Thrill to cheerfully twisted in-house musical propaganda from General Electric, Kellogg’s, American-Standard, Citgo, Purina, and more, with Steve’s affectionately snarky commentary (and even a bit of live music). It’s a secret world of Americana that will astonish, amuse, perplex — and just might make you want to go out and sell, sell, sell!
 

MONDAY, 7:30PM: Outrageous: Showbiz and the Culture Wars: KLIPH NESTEROFF Book Launch
With Special Guests:
PATTON OSWALT
JAMES URBANIAK
BLAINE CAPATCH

There is a common belief that we live in unprecedented times, that nobody got offended in the past, that people are simply too sensitive today, that racism and sexism were once widely accepted without objection. KLIPH NESTEROFF’S OUTRAGEOUS reveals that the truth is precisely the opposite. With
every step of our cultural history, minorities have pushed back against racist portrayals, women have fought for respect, and people have sought to change the world of entertainment and beyond through a combination of censorship, advocacy, and protest. 

Americans have been objecting to entertainment for nearly two hundred years, sometimes rationally, often irrationally. Likewise, powerful political interests have sought to circumvent the arts using censorship, legal harassment, and outright propaganda. From Mae West through Johnny Carson, Amos ’n’ Andy through Beavis and Butt-Head,

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kliph Nesteroff has been called the “premier popular historian of comedy,” by the New York Times. He is the author of two previous books, The Comedians: Drunks, Thieves, Scoundrels, and the History of American Comedy and We Had a Little Real Estate Problem: The Unheralded Story of Native Americans and Comedy. His work has been praised by comedy legends from Gilbert Gottfried to Mel Brooks, Fred Willard to Norm Macdonald.


The fond embrace of gravy, 
VanJam

*|MC:SUBJECT|*
View Our Calendar Here → 

Seasons Greetings from your favorite Popcorn Restaurant!

Hello Darlings, 

We write you from in hiding, as the paparazzi just WON’T leave us alone! At this weekend’s ALAN CARR show ADELE (yes, that Adele) was in attendance and basically confirmed her [heretofore unannounced] marriage to RICH PAUL. Now, typicallly this info would stay locked up tight with Orl Dynasty’s wedding night undies in THE DYNASTY VAULT , but someone in the audience leaked this info to internet gossip queen Deuxmoi, and the rest… is history. Though rarely named in any article, and though our capacity is incorrectly stabbed at  in almost every one (75 seats?? MAYBE WITH OUR SIDE CURTAINS DRAWN, Smooth! And BNN, you can take several seats for your shoddy journalism as well!) but at least Entertainment Daily (move over, Entertainment Weekly, you weak-ass publication!) got it right. But basically, we’ve been launched into the stratosphere, and we’re pretty sure Adele will be singing at the wedding Vanessa is manifesting for Jamie in 2025 as a gesture of thanks for being such a perfect backdrop for her news to be shared. Adele, it was nothing. Wishing you and Rich much mazel!

Other than the above news, our “Scorpio Season” turned out to be alllll stinger this year. We went in seeking power and life lessons and opportunity, we come out holding some new truths (shitting in a bucket is not the free-spirited woodsperson vibe we were after, double pink-eye is not “flirty”, and large corporations seems to scrimp on the “moral compass” budget) and letting go of some old ideas (living simply can still involve plumbing, laughter is a GOOD medicine, but not the best for double pink eye, and being nice doesn’t always get RESULTS.)  We welcome the changing season as we try to bolster ourselves for the more difficult elements: awkward conversations, innnntennnnnse amounts of emails about sales, and crippling potluck stress. We’ve got open arms for kindness, connection, expression, and any flarpin’ excuse to celebrate. LIKE THESE SHOWS! (What a segue!) 

🦃 THIS WEEK! IT’S GIVING…. THANKS

SUPEREGO: FORGOTTEN CLASSICS
Experience a bold interpretation of the great works of literature. So bold, in fact, nobody at Superego even bothered to read them. In this video vault classic, our players improvised a famous work of fiction, one with which they weren't at all familiar. They were given only the book's title, its first and last lines, and the names of its characters. The rest was up to them. This time out, Superego reimagined James Joyce's Ulysses!

Featuring: James Bladon, Jeremy Carter,  Matt Gourley,  Mark McConville, and Paul F. Tompkins.

Dearest Dynasty Darlings (Da Triple D),

We continue to bask in the autumny glow of 🦂 SCORPIO SEASON 🦂  'round these parts. It's been a particularly and literally eventful one so far: so many events! We love hostin' 'em and puttin' 'em on and creating an enchanting escape from the outside world once you enter through our hallowed doors. In our experience, people generally seem to appreciate entering into a magical, vintage typewriter-y realm with relics of "simpler" times. Times when writing machines were unwieldy and you really had to have a keen knowledge of margins and tabs and if you misspelled something on a document it required white paint, or completely starting over. And then, if you wanted to make sure that a word like hallowed was being used accurately, you had to open up an unwieldy book and have keen knowledge of alphabetization and if it wasn't correct it required... white paint. ZING! Look at us, connecting dots. If you'd told us 5 minutes ago that we'd have callbacks to both the word hallowed AND the concept of white out, we'd say "You're batshit!" But now look at us! "WE'RE batshit!" And owning it! HA! Now THAT's The Dynasty Difference!™ ;) 

Last week was indeed a wild one here, and without getting into the finer details of it, we'll shout out the 99% of folks who come here and are sweet and gracious and appreciative, and say BUG OFF to the 1% entitled few who come to corporate events we host and give attitude to our overly kind staff and do things like choke an innocent toilet to death with a stack of trifold paper towels though there is toilet paper readily available and then say “your toilet’s broken” with the vacant eyes of a serial killer, or fill their bags with handfuls of packs of Skittles and Nerd Ropes n' such and. Sure, there's a concession buyout and you can take what you want, but be reasonable, people! Take a candy or two and leave some for the others! A reminder that these things are readily available at ANY GAS STATION. And gas stations are everywhere in this car-obsessed world we live in! This seems like an appropriate place for a quick additional shout out to our elevated chocolatier partner, Compartes. Compartes: delicious locally sourced chocolate with gorgeous package design, an upside down triangle logo like ours, and available before and after all shows at Dynasty. One day we hope to do a hot collab with them. If you are reading this and have ties to Compartes, help us to make that happen. There will be a reward.

Side note: Apologies for the shade given to gas stations earlier. Gas stations are great. Or evil? Who's to say. Send us an email with your favorite gas station story or a petroleum based haiku for free tickets to something soon! Maybe we’ll also end up doing a hot collab with a gas station! V interested in the one with the little Dino guy. (Sinclair, we believe? Not to toot our own horns for knowing all this ELITE INFO ). Listen, we try to seem down to earth but yes… coastal elite. 🤷‍♀️ It’s GEOGRAPHY people, calm down. 

In final things, whilst a small portal to hell continuously opened and closed at the theater last week like a little whackamole that we kept trying to permanently shut down ( but our mallet was… love ) Jamie spent those days on a retreat in a cabin in a remote forest in Albion, California, a birthday gift to himself! It was more rustic than he'd planned for, though he did know going into it that he would be showering outside in the elements and shitting in a bucket as part of a Humanure™ composting situation. The trip wasn't the creative boon he'd planned for, but he met some lovely people, explored the beauty of the Mendocino coast, discovered a lovely arts scene in Fort Bragg, learned how to build a fire in a wood stove after two freezing nights, awkwardly chopped wood for kindling, picked apples and made apple juice, saw a batshit Scandinavian puppet show, and most of all enjoyed peeing off his tiny second floor balcony into the darkness at 3am every night. The major takeaway: Sometimes you don't get the retreat you wanted, but you get the retreat you needed. (Shout out to the great folks at Salmon Creek Farm for hosting, highly recommend!)

Our mallet is Love,
VanJam
 
PS- 🦂 This week is also Vanessa's b-day so wish her a happy one! It's also Frank's (Jamie's Dad) birthday on the same damn day! BATSHIT!! And happy bday to all the other Scorpio's in our Dynasty world! Are you one too? Email us and we'll do something special for you on your next visit! 🦂

Now, to our upcoming shows! So many good ones!

WEDNESDAY, 7:30PM: HANNAH EINBINDER

HANNAH EINBINDER has quickly established herself as a highly sought-after actress and comedian. She can be seen starring opposite Jean Smart in the hit HBO Max comedy series, HACKS, which is currently filming its third season.

Hannah’s performance in HACKS has earned her numerous accolades including two Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for “Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.”

Though the series marks Einbinder’s first major television role, she is no stranger to the comedy world and has owned the stage as a stand-up comedian at venues and festivals around the country. She made her late-night stand-up debut on THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT in 2019 and was highlighted as one of Variety’s “10 Comics to Watch for 2021,” cementing herself as one of the wittiest emerging talents in the industry.

 

THURSDAY, 7:30PM: The Benson Movie Interruption: Your Choice

THE BENSON MOVIE INTERRUPTION: YOUR CHOICE is a show where comedian Doug Benson (SUPER HIGH ME, @midnight) invites some of his comedy friends to sit in the front row of the theater with mics, cracking wise during a screening of a movie that YOU choose. That’s right, audience members are encouraged to bring a dvd/blu ray of a film they would like to see ripped apart (lovingly) and a vote will be held to determine which one we watch.

SUPEREGO: FORGOTTEN CLASSICS
Experience a bold interpretation of the great works of literature. So bold, in fact, nobody at Superego even bothered to read them. In this video vault classic, our players improvised a famous work of fiction, one with which they weren't at all familiar. They were given only the book's title, its first and last lines, and the names of its characters. The rest was up to them. This time out, Superego reimagined James Joyce's Ulysses!

Featuring: James Bladon, Jeremy Carter,  Matt Gourley,  Mark McConville, and Paul F. Tompkins.

Hey there Darrrrrlins! 

Hope you’re doing so very well this Monday (and every day, obv.) Thank god for daylight savings time, right? We’re really looking forward to getting to spend more quality time with our crops and other agricultural projects and one of is us is certainly not suffering from the effects daylight savings time has on children who have a complete disregard for what clocks say! Both of those musings were sarcastic :). Anyway, for those of you sad that the blanket of darkness falls on our fair city an hour sooner, leaving us more time to be in our homes and wrestle-dangling with our thoughts (some of them intrusive!)… we see you. We feel you. We are you. The good news is, you can escape your reality with a trip to Dynasty, where the corn is always hot and the temp is always 69.

SUNDAY  

4:00PM: ERIC ANDRE and DAN CURRY'S Dumb Ideas Book Release!
 Dumb Ideas Book Release Event! From the brilliantly demented minds behind The Eric Andre Show and Bad Trip, an insane illustrated compendium about the art of pranking.

For over a decade, Eric Andre and longtime collaborator Dan Curry have dreamed up and performed a cornucopia of outrageous, often illegal, and always death-defying hijinks for the Adult Swim series The Eric Andre Show, as well as in the hit movie Bad Trip. Now, in their very first book, Eric and Dan reveal the secret fuel behind their surrealistic prank machine. Get ready to gorge your thirsty peepers on epic stories of shame, redemption, and glory behind pranks so dumb they’re brilliant…and beyond the realm of criticism.

Artfully designed, loaded with funny photos, and a gracious foreblurb by Jack Black, Dumb Ideas is an essential manual for getting a laugh out of friends, family, and complete strangers—and staying out of jail while doing it.


🕵️‍♀️ 7:30PM: KIRAN DEOL. WHAT  YOU’RE WATCHING: Random acts of violence aren’t funny – unless they happen to Emmy-nominated standup comedian Kiran Deol. After a stranger smashes a bottle into Kiran’s face in 2022, hijinks ensue as the DA empowers her with the choice to punish her assailant with either 6 years in prison or 2 years of probation. Kiran’s masterful retelling of the experience in her standup/storytelling hour Assault on Comedy deftly calls into question the nature of victimhood and villainy and transforms black eyes into black comedy.

MONDAY, 7:30PM: A Very Good Show to Celebrate the Release of Comedy BookTo celebrate the release of his new book, Comedy Book, Vulture’s JESSE DAVID FOX is putting on the best damn comedy show he could.
