    decease arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;”>HashtagComedy has been bringing some of Hollywood’s funniest headliners to Thousand Oaks each month for an evening of entertainment.  July’s fun yet intimate cabaret setting is Saturday, July 23 at 8:00 pm at the Hillcrest Center for the Arts, 403 W. Hillcrest Dr. The hour and a half show is for eighteen years and up only, and cocktails may be purchased with valid ID.  Doors open at 7:30.  Future 2016 HashtagComedy performances are slated for July 2, and August 13, 2016. Summer settings are often outside, under the stars.

    If you want to see truly professional comedians before they land their spot on Saturday Night Live! (It recently happened to HashtagComedy performer Jon Rudnitsky!), then check out the monthly laughs at the Hillcrest Center for the Arts.  Some of Hollywood’s most popular headlining comics perform right here in our own backyard.  Please note: these shows are 18+ and may feature humor that will be offensive to some.
