Best in Austin Comedy

Rozco's Comedy Club is launching a new Thursday night showcase called Best in Austin, and Dylan Carlino is the main feature for the show on October 1. It's a stand-up comedy night that pulls from the city's working comic pool, and Carlino is the name leading the bill.

Rozco's describes Best in Austin as a new Thursday-night staple, and they pitch it as a few different things at once: a date spot, a night out with friends, or a good time on your own. The lineups are built from some of the best comedians working in Austin, and the comics they bring in have appeared on HBO, Netflix, Hulu, Comedy Central, and Kill Tony. It's a showcase format, so you'll get a few different voices on the bill rather than just one person holding the stage for the whole night.

Carlino is the main draw for this one, and he's part of that same circuit of comics who've worked their way onto the bigger platforms. If you've been following the Austin scene, you've likely seen his name pop up alongside the others who move between local clubs and national credits.

The show runs from 8 PM to 9:30 PM, so it's a relatively tight window that gets you in and out without eating up your whole evening. Tickets are $20, and it's an 18+ room, so you'll need to be at least that old to get in. If you're looking for something to do on a Thursday that doesn't require a full weekend commitment, this is a straightforward way to catch a few sets in one go.
