Pre-Show Happy HourPrayer Dudz and Chance Theater want Stand-Up Tuesday to be the best night out that you can possibly have... on a Tuesday in Orange County. Starting one hour before the performance, audience members are invited to come and hang out in the Chance lobby while partaking in $3 Beer or Wine, Jello shots, complimentary snacks, and the company of your fellow comedy-lovers! The Chance also has a full bar for patrons who like their beverages with more of a kick (or no alcohol at all), but there is a NO-DRINK MINIMUM!

In December Laura will head overseas for the 10th time to entertain the troops. Laura is also currently working on her third book, turning her dissertation (yes officially she is Dr. Laura, but not THAT Dr. Laura) into a speaker platform to help heal the world with the power of levity.
