The night we went (Tuesday) it was open mic before the show, which was a great warm up! It's worth heading to the show early if you can catch those new comics in action. The comics at the comedy showcase were all really good! The big negative I have of the venue was the service. There was one waitress, who was horrible!Written on Mar 06 2011

I'd never been to the Purple Onion before and loved its intimacy. I felt very at home, especially as the comedians chatted with us throughout the show. They all had good energy and adjusted to the small size of the audience. I had a great time :)Written on Jan 26 2011
