Jokes On Us

Come to Jokes On Us, a live comedy show featuring some of Orlando's finest standup comedians at a hip gallery in the Milk District.

As you sip your free drink, you'll watch stand-up comedy performances by these stellar comedians:

Headliner Lauren Dufault

Feature Alex Venci

Opener Ellen Williams

Hosted by Allison Doolittle 

Our intimate venue only has space for 25 guests, so we've expanded to two showtimes:

7:30 pm (doors open at 7 pm)

9:00 pm (doors open at 8:45 pm)

We recommend arriving 15 minutes early to get your drink, choose a seat and get settled.

About the Performers:

Lauren Dufault is known for her dynamic, energetic presence and physical comedy. Her performing experience ranges from working with comedians like Jessica Kirson, Samuel Comroe, Steven Ho, Jack Assadourian Jr., Ed Bassmaster, Guy Torry, Pablo Francisco, and the late Bob Saget. She’s a regular feature and was recently voted a finalist in the Best of Tampa Bay: Stand-Up Comedy awards. Lauren is the producer and host of Disco Cat Comedy, Big Girl Pants Comedy, and a weekly open mic in St. Pete, FL. 

Alex Venci has been performing stand-up comedy for nearly four years. By day, he works with students who have disabilities. By night, he's a stand-up comic who talks about the things that matter most and sparks joy. Alex has performed all over Florida, Texas, Ohio and even Canada. He has performed at SAK Comedy Lab, St. Pete, Orlando Funnybone, Bonkerz Comedy, a bonfire in Columbus, Ohio and the Uncloseted Comedy Festival in Hamilton, Ontario.

Ellen Williams is awkward and owning it. Growing up in South Carolina gave her plenty of family stories, turning the everyday hilarity of life and relationships into comedy to help her cope. With charm, self-awareness, and a healthy dose of Southern humor, Ellen proves that sometimes the best thing you can do is laugh at yourself.

Allison Doolittle is a comedian, producer, and your host for "Jokes On Us." Originally from Austin, Texas, and now based in Orlando, she has built a reputation for crafting hilarious live comedy experiences that audiences trust. Allison has honed her comedy chops performing on stages in Orlando, Miami, Los Angeles, and Austin, as well as internationally in Barcelona, Athens, and Paris. Her comedy—ranging from cross-cultural mishaps to surprisingly funny paintings—is engaging, accessible, and smart.
