The venue also has a state of the art sound & lighting system – including two projectors, QSC Pro Audio speakers and ADJ Jolt 300 for laser eye candy – to be shared with comics from the Bay & all across America.
This nearly 5,000 sq foot performance venue has a rotating art collection focused on local artists of color including art pieces from local artist Derrick Bell.
