Comedy Events

Hold on tight. On March 27th, the backbar at Verna hosts a night of high-octane stand-up that lives up to its name.

Tucked behind Verna Cafe, Backbar is a cozy, dimly lit sanctuary for anyone who loves live stand-up comedy and dive bar soul. It’s the neighborhood’s favorite hidden gem—where the drinks are unique, the beer is cheap, and the comedy is raw.
