Barrel of the Bottoms

If you're looking for cheap comedy in KC this is your place. We enjoyed every comedian who performed. We sat in the front row and didn't ever feel out of place. Small spot in the West Bottoms in the Hobbs building. BYOB and complimentary drinks!!!! I've already been recommending to friends!

Make the journey to the West Bottoms and wander up to the address on your ticket. Meet someone on a red staircase who will let you wander into the building to find the elevator (passenger, as opposed to the giant freight elevator) on the 2nd floor. Take the elevator to the 4th floor where your adventure awaits. You will truly feel like you have been transported to a friend's basement where everyone is hanging out on old couches and cracking jokes. There's even a sink full of complimentary beer and seltzers (leave a cash tip in the bowl to make sure this place stays open of course!!). The Barrel of the Bottoms hosts comedy open mics, drag-lesque, sing alongs, and much more (my personal favorite event being the monthly Body Language where comedians take off clothes throughout their set). They also function as a recording studio for lots of local podcasts. There is no better place to spend a weekend night than the basement in the sky. (It is the west bottoms so you have to find street parking, but I've never had to park too far away, so don't let it deter you)
