The Westside Eclectic

A Comedy Mecca, For Literally Almost Hundreds

About Me

The Westside Eclectic is the biggest-smallest comedy network in this universe. From our overtly-conspicuous super-secret hideout, just three short blocks from the beach in Santa Monica, we're shaping the future-past of comedy.

WHO WE ARE
The Westside Eclectic is the west side’s hottest new comedy theater and creative community! Located on the 3rd Street Promenade, we offer a full calendar of classes and comedy shows almost every night. The Westside Eclectic began in 2006 as an improv school and live comedy venue in Los Angeles. Recently named by Variety as a top spot to scout talent in LA, we’re committed to fostering a down-to-earth, supportive and professional environment for the talent we work with, and to also create opportunities for them to gain exposure and further their careers. Our improv and comedy classes are taught by some of the top performers in L.A., and most nights of the week we host stand-up, sketch, and improv shows featuring the best players in L.A.Õs comedy scene. In addition to our theater, we are also the home base to The Independent Comedy Network, which is dedicated to producing, licensing and distributing high-quality comedy content for the internet and beyond.
