highly recommend the opening night musical, hilarious show, they make up the songs and story on the spot, you can buy beer at the bar in the lobby, but the cast is funny with or without being drunk. tickets are $10, but you can get them for $3.50 by signing up for goldstarevents.

Pros

+ Musical!, Funny Cast, Piano Player

Cons

- Parking, Shady Hollywood Blvd
