Comedy and Free(ish) Food at Union Machine Works!

Comedy at a quirky factory with a musical house band to kick off the evening, followed by a large amount of comedians from all over the Bay Area for FREE, and ending the night with another round from the live band! WE HAVE CHEESE ENCHILADAS and they're banger as fuck, and light drinks available for an extra cost! SPECIAL HOUSE BAND starring SHEENA from @sheena.lokelani.music! Bring your own beer, wine, food, and we're 4/20 friendly, just come as yourself and bring a smile! And maybe a light jacket ;)

Come Sing Show Tunes!

This event consists of an informal concert in which the performers are all of us! We'll take turns singing Broadway show tunes. All musical levels are welcome, whether you're an aspiring musical theater star or just someone who belts out show tunes in the shower. If you feel shy about singing a solo, it's okay to come and listen. We'll also do some group singing. Please think ahead and pick one or two solos you'd enjoy singing (this is not a firm commitment, you can change your mind if you get the jitters). Depending on how many people choose to sing, you'll either get to sing one or both of your songs. We don't usually have an accompanist, so after you pick your song(s), you can search for a suitable accompaniment on YouTube. Once you've found an accompaniment you like, please add a link for your accompaniment to this spreadsheet so we can have it ready to play at the gathering: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ftn_81hdqtmYb8_QlKhpyzlu4FwKDDRZGZ3YT2x8qc8/edit?gid=0#gid=0 In the second hour of the gathering we'll schmooze and do more informal singing, and eat snacks -- (optional) feel free to bring a snack to share. For covid safety, please don't attend if you or a household member have ANY cold or flu symptoms, or if you were recently exposed to covid or flu. We will have open windows and air purifiers running.
