Re: Laugh for free...
ComedyWorx on Peace Street in Raleigh (just down from Mellow Mushroom just past Mo Joes) has very affordable weekend shows as well. Just $10 for the 8:30pm shortform improv shows on Sat and Sun and you get to stay for the 10:30pm longform show for free. Or go to the 10:30pm show and its only $5. The improvers don't get paid...they do it for fun and the $ helps keep the club in business. Plus, they sell beer for much less than any other Glenwood spot. You can take classes there too. So much fun!
