One Liner Madness

ONE LINER MADNESS is a Time Out Critics' Pick show that travels the country to find the best joke writer in every city. Dozens of local and national comedians will go head-to-head in a bracket-style, single-elimination, one-liner joke contest. Audience applause determines which of the 64 performers advance, and who ultimately becomes the champion and winner of the trophy and cash prize. It's like a March Madness tournament in 100 minutes, but with jokes instead of basketball games.

64 Comedians, 126 Jokes, 1 Champion.
