Comedy Calendar

February is the shortest month, but it’s no less packed with comedy shows than any other time of year. The dead of winter is when we could use a laugh the most, and Portland’s comedians work around the clock to bring them out of us. These upcoming shows include this year’s Funniest Five, as well as other comedians who have been on our list—or could be on next year’s.

It’s Gonna Be Okay

Hunker down in the Eastburn’s basement for a free, low-stress comedy show hosted by Babs Holm and Lewis Sequeira. Forget the troubles of the overworld with trios of comedians in February, which will include (in no particular order) Jordan Casner, Katie Nguyen, Jaren George, Imani Denae, Arlo Weierhauser, Mx. Dahlia Belle, Adam Pasi and Kyle Kinane. The Eastburn, 1800 E Burnside St., instagram.com/itsgonnabeokaycomedy. 8 pm Mondays. Free. 21+.

That’s What She Said 10th Anniversary

Members of both orgs, including Brooks, Moss Bellm, Shannon Sales and Kirsten Kuppenbender, will take to the stage with special guests to celebrate a decade of progress.
