Cheaper Than Therapy Stand-up Comedy
Cheaper Than Therapy brings live stand-up comedy to the historic Shelton Theater in the heart of Union Square. Each show features five to six hand-picked, experienced comedians alongside occasional guest drop-ins — the kind of lineup that makes for a genuinely unpredictable night out. Doors open at 7pm alongside the full bar. The show kicks off at 7:45pm, with last seating at 8:05pm — so plan to arrive by 7:30pm to check in at the box office. Shows wrap by 9:15pm, making it an easy weeknight option. There is no drink minimum. Shows run Wednesday through Sunday year-round.
