Cackle Shack Comedy
Details
If your Mondays have been feeling a little too ordinary, Cackle Shack Comedy is here to jolt them back to life with a burst of laughter and a side of delightful chaos.
Happening Monday, May 18, 2026 at 8:30 pm, this weekly comedy hangout transforms Lustre Pearl East into a playground for punchlines. Host Angelina Martin (you might recognize her from Comedy Central) keeps the energy high while a rotating lineup of Austin’s sharpest stand-up comedians test-drive brand new material alongside bold first-timers taking their shot at the mic.
Think of it as half open mic, half polished show, and 100% entertaining. You never quite know what’s coming next—an experimental bit, a future Netflix star in the making, or that one fresh comic who absolutely steals the night—but you can count on big laughs, a laid-back crowd, and plenty of stories to take home.
- Free to attend – your wallet gets the night off while your abs get a workout.
- Weekly tradition – every Monday at 8:30 pm, so it’s easy to turn into your go-to start-of-the-week ritual.
- Curated chaos – mix of seasoned pros and brave newcomers keeps the show unpredictable and fun.
- Pre-show perks – arrive early to enjoy tasty food and take advantage of happy hour deals before the laughs kick in.
Feeling funny yourself? Cackle Shack is also a welcoming launchpad for comics who want stage time without the intimidation factor.
- Sign up by emailing cackleshackmic@gmail.com between Tuesday morning and Saturday at midnight.
- The host will get back to you on Sunday or Monday to let you know if you made the lineup.
Whether you’re a comedy nerd chasing the next big name, a performer hungry for the mic, or just someone who wants to turn a regular Monday into a mini event, Cackle Shack Comedy on May 18, 2026 promises a night of free, unpretentious, genuinely funny entertainment.
Grab some friends, grab a drink, and get ready to cackle.
