HOT TOPICS COMEDY SHOW

This isn’t your typical stand-up show — it’s audience-driven comedy.
You bring the topics, and the comedians take it from there.

Throughout the night, comedians will pull inspiration straight from the crowd, riffing, roasting, and improvising in real time. No scripts, no repeats, and no two shows are ever the same. The energy is fast, interactive, and unpredictable — whether you shout out a topic or just sit back and laugh, you’re part of the experience.

Expect sharp wit, spontaneous moments, and a room full of laughter in Ashling’s intimate setting. Grab a drink, settle in, and get ready for a comedy show that’s fueled by the audience and powered by pure chaos (the fun kind).

Born and raised in the DMV, Ace Jackson brings a fearless and deeply personal perspective to the stage — probably because he’s almost lost his life more than once.
