The Bomb Shelter.

Ideas are easy. Maybe too easy, because before long you’ve got a mental list of things you’d like to do as soon as you get the chance.

Last night, we decided it was time to get one of those things off the list already, and it’s one of our favorite ideas in a while.

On July 21, we’re opening the doors to pye,brown HQ for the first edition of The Bomb Shelter.

The Bomb Shelter is a night of stand-up comedy, performed in our living room by people who have never done it before.

Stand-up is a skill that takes years on the road to perfect. We don’t have time for that. Instead, we’re inviting you to join us for what is sure to be a night we’ll simultaneously remember for a while and wish we could forget.

Admission is $5 or free if you’re telling jokes. (Yes, we’re charging. This will be worth it.) If you’d like to perform, shoot us an e-mail at jokes@pyecommabrown.com and we’ll get you the password for your PERFORMER TICKET.

Reserve your seat today at Brown Paper Tickets. With spots for ten comedians and ten bystanders, this might fill up quickly.

We’ll get you more info as the date nears, but with the line-up of “comics” we’ve already confirmed, you should just trust us.

This is going to be a disaster of the best kind.
