Comedy Studio Comedy Club

Located on the third floor of the Hong Kong restaurant in Harvard Square, the Comedy Studio is a low-key spot where patrons can laugh off a few calories after stuffing themselves silly with Chinese food. Shows at Comedy Studio take place at 8pm every night except Monday, with rotating themes such as “The Mystery Lounge,” “The Big Saturday Night Show!” and “The Sunday Funnies.”

Green comedians get a chance to produce some chuckles during Wednesday night’s “Fresh Faces” show, and Thursday and Friday shows are presented by two resident heavy hitters – Sean Sullivan and Ken Reid, respectively. Other notable performers at Comedy Studio have included Sam Walters, Jen Kirkman, and Brendon Small of Adult Swim’s “Home Movies” fame.

The tiny size of the Comedy Studio ensures that seats fill up quickly, so guests may want to arrive early to claim their territory. And because parking in Harvard Square can be painful, it’s advisable to take the T and walk the extra half block. A show at the Comedy Studio is sure to shake the blues away – and a few scorpion bowls won’t hurt, either.
