Cheap Laughs Comedy Night
Cheap Laughs brings the funniest comics from across New England to the cabaret at Madame Sherri's for the first time ever on Thursday March 20! Start your weekend early with our 7pm show featuring Paul Gillespie, Brandon Battick, Kirsten Logan, and headliner Amy Tee. Gillespie has been making strangers LOL since founding Cheap Laughs in 2019. His boomer-take on life comes down to this: "I'm trying to be woke, but I keep hitting the snooze button." Brandon Battick burst onto the Boston comedy scene before he even graduated from high school. He's back in town after playing clubs and pubs across Austin, TX. The warning "don't judge a book by its cover" fits Battick perfectly. Kirsten Logan has dominated the Providence comedy scene for years. A regular at the Comedy Connection as well as several premier Boston clubs, Logan sees love and life through a lens that only she can properly focus. Headliner Amy Tee uses her razor comedic wit to shed light on living with bipolar disorder while staying sober. Her candor, her brutal honesty, and her boyish charm always combine to leave her audiences in stitches.

This tour-de-farce is certain to be an unforgivable, er…unforgettable evening of "Varla’s Version" of entertainment.
International drag chanteuse Varla Jean Merman is a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown! After the craziest time in memory, the loosest gal in town is at loose ends. What’s a distressed diva to do? Tease her hair, steal someone’s Ativan, and get on with the show, of course! Varla Jean Merman’s all-new show is filled with hilarious songs, dazzling costumes, and more thrills than a panic attack.
