This weekend, laughs abound at the “The Shiner Holiday Extravaganza.” The “Extravaganza” is an all-improvised show featuring “Dasariski” on Sunday, Dec. 17, at 8 p.m.

After performing to sold-out houses at The Phoenix, San Francisco and Austin Improv festivals, the four-person improv troupe of Jen Cain, Mark Gagliardi, Jennifer Marie Kelley and Hal Lublin, collectively known as “Shiner,” is back in LA for a special “Shiner Holiday Extravaganza” at the Westside Eclectic. “Shiner” welcomes special guests “Dasariski,” a sharp, wickedly funny trio featuring Chicago improv veterans Rich Talarico, Bob Dassie and Craig Cackowski.

Tickets are $8\. Admission price also gets patrons an entry into a holiday raffle. One audience member will win a holiday ham and a six pack of Shiner Bock beer.

Reservations available by phone at (310) 451-0850.
