“Book a sitter early and grab dinner nearby on Hillsborough Street first.”
What is Fresh Baked - A Standup Showcase? This event is a live comedy performance featuring four to five local North Carolina standup comics delivering extended sets at the ComedyWorx venue in Raleigh. If you plan to go, keep in mind that this show is rated M for Mature. While teenagers under eighteen can attend with a parent, the adult themes make this much better suited for a couples' night out or a meetup with friends. Tickets cost between $11 and $13, and doors open at 8:30 PM for the 9:00 PM show. The venue offers nearby parking, and you can grab drinks on-site to enjoy during the performances. This showcase makes an excellent weekend pick because it is an affordable, low-stress way to support local artists. It is the perfect excuse to book a babysitter, grab dinner nearby in Hillsborough Street's university district, and enjoy some kid-free laughs.
