It was sold out on 01/17, and the vibe was more “comedy show” than “gladiator arena”—not a ton of heckling, but the crowd was fully with it. (The host even had to call it a “splash zone” early on, which tells you the room was close.) Katie Mark’s set felt like the heartbeat of the night: sharp observations, surprise turns, and just enough chaos to keep everyone leaning forward. Elijah Nevels finished by turning the closing spot into a mini-interview with the audience—getting people to talk, then punching up their answers on the fly.
⭐ Highlight: “Elijah trying to run the heckling “by the script”… and the audience immediately refusing to cooperate, which somehow made it work even better.”
