Cheaper Than Therapy Stand-up Comedy
Cheaper Than Therapy runs live stand-up comedy seven nights a week at the Shelton Theater in the heart of Union Square. Each show features five to six hand-picked, experienced comedians, with occasional guest drop-ins keeping things unpredictable. Doors open at 7pm and the full bar is ready to go — no drink minimum, so come early, grab a seat, and settle in. Plan to check in at the box office by 7:30pm; the show kicks off at 7:45pm with last seating at 8:05pm. Every show wraps by 9:15pm, making it an easy weeknight or weekend option.
