What’s Happening at Nerdist Theater at Meltdown This Week?

We’ve had a monstrous May. In our second month of operation here at Nerdist Theater at Meltdown, we hung out with Kevin Pereira, Rove McManus, and Robert Kirkman at the Nerdist Podcast, saw improvised movies and musicals with Rough Cut and Diamond Lion, had a funeral for Rory Scovel at The JoRy Hour, and welcomed Community’s Dan Harmon as he let us in on plans to colonize the moon and call it Harmontown. Whew.

Now let’s talk this week.

We’re taking tonight off, but on Saturday, May 28th at 8pm, we’re happy to have Knuckles and Tits.

Stephen “Knuckles” Brophy and Ebbie “Tits” Parker perform sketches the way they weren’t be to be performed—with performances! Knuckles & Tits sketches focus on the perils of modern humans in existential crises, which is, let’s face it, hilarious. It’s a classic battle of the sexes with actual gun play, the ghost of Don La Fontaine, and possibly at least one semi-noticeable boner.

Tickets are just $10, make them yours by clicking here!


On Sunday, May 29th, get an advantage over the competition by attending the Nerdist Writers Series!

Join moderator Ben Blacker as he hosts esteemed panelists discussing topics like different types of writing, how they got started, what inspires them, the business side of writing, and more. Panelists will also answer your questions and give some helpful tips and tricks! This series is a must for any hopeful writer in LA, with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit 826LA. Scheduled to appear: Michael Green (Heroes; Kings; the Green Lantern film), Alexa Junge (Friends; United States of Tara), Doug Petrie (Buffy), and Josh Friedman (Sarah Connor Chronicles, Locke & Key).

This panel is just $15- get your tickets here!

After the panel on Sunday, stick around for Matt Mira’s Day Off!

This wildly popular training ground for comedians has been having to turn people away, so make sure you get there at 7:30 on the dot to sign up! You’ll see Matt Mira, Paul Cibis, and some of the best comics you’ve never heard of at this weekly workout room.

Then on Wednesday, June 1st at 8:30pm, it’s time for The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail!

This weekly standup showcase, hosted by Jonah Ray and Kumail Nanjiani, will knock your socks off. This week, we’ve got Brendon Walsh, Jake Weisman, Joselyn Hughes, Andres Du Bouchet, Anthony Jeselnik, Tony Sam, and Kyle Kinane!

Tickets are just $8, and you can nab yours here!

That’s all for this week, but stay tuned next week for the debut of Sex Nerd Sandra’s live podcast and our post-E3 shows for all you videogame nerds out there! As always, follow us on Twitter and keep track of our shows here.
