Grab your favorite sport coat and heels for Austin’s classiest comedy night, Dressed to Kill. The show is a throwback to the era of strong drinks, smoky lounges, and lewd humor. Expect your favorite comics in town dressed to the nines - guys in suits, gals in cocktail dresses, guys in cocktail dresses, gals in suits; whatever we’re not here to judge how someone gets fancy. We just tell em’ to bring their good shoes.
We’re talking about hi-balls and hitmen, smoking jackets, and hi-backed pumps. We’re celebrating the two-fisted martinis and the jokes that make your date blush. Because remember, folks, this ain’t your grandparent’s comedy show - this is tasteful threads with tasteless humor.
Dressed to Kill is dedicated to the legends that came up in the velvet curtain era, back when we dressed up to get on airplanes and watched Sammy Davis Jr roast Frank Sinatra with a smoke dangling off his lip.
Kill Tony and America’s Got Talent alum Ahren Belisle, ******* Forever star Rachel Wolfson, along with Austin killers like Mike Eaton, Ehsan Ahmad, and Genivive Clinton have all popped in - you never know which of your favorite comedians is next.
