THANKS FOR VISITING THE HAVE NOTS! AND THEATRE 99 WEBSITE! Theatre 99 has shows every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights!
SCROLL DOWN FOR FULL SCHEDULE.
Theatre 99 is located at 280 Meeting Street above the Bicycle Shoppe. Walk to the back of the building and you will see the stairs to our entrance.
Theatre 99 has a bar with beer, wine and sodas. It is a non-smoking venue.
Shows are typically rated PG-13, but since it is based on audience suggestion, you never know what is going to happen. Shows are not appropriate for kids under 11 years old. Most shows contain adult language.
There are parking lots and garages on George and Wentworth Streets. There are lots of metered spaces behind the Gaillard Auditorium on George Street. We recommend NOT parking in the 1 hour residential spaces...you'll get towed or get a $45 ticket (definitely not worth it). Hope to see you at the shows!
Upcoming Events Friday, July 3 COMEDY COMBAT 8:00 PM The exciting format pits 2 long form teams/shows against each other and the audience votes for their favorite.

Friday, July 10 AGORAFABULOUS! Mostly True Tales from Sara Benincasa 10:00 PM Sara Benincasa's one-woman show combines the sharp hilarity that's made her a hit on the web with the nutty magnetism that's made her a rising star in the NY alternative comedy scene. A surprisingly poignant celebration of weirdness and quirks--emotional and psychological--Sara's stories will inspire, delight, and occasionally terrify you. Crazy has never been this much fun!
Sara has taken AGORAFABULOUS to the Dirty South Improv Theater in Carrboro, NC, the PIT in New York, and to LAFF (Ladies are Funny Festival) in Austin, TX, where it was one of two featured one-woman shows.
Things people say about about Sara...

Saturday, July 11 THE HAVE NOTS! COMEDY IMPROV COMPANY 8:00 PM The longest running show in Charleston! With 14 years and over 1,200 shows together, The Have Nots! (founders of Theatre 99) are ready for your audience suggestions. No scripts! All improv! Come see what all the talk is about! Venue: Theatre 99 280 Meeting Street Charleston, SC Tickets: |$12.50||ph#843-853-6687||
Wednesday, July 15 LAUGH FOR A LINCOLN featuring CATS HUGGING CATS 8:00 PM 3 acts of improv comedy for just 5 bucks...yes, just $5. Best bang for your buck in town! This five person improv group finds the comedy in the mundane. Scenes start out normally but soon become ticking time bombs of insane hilarity. A show may start out with a scene about a parent teacher conference or a board meeting, but by the end chickens have risen up and taken over the world and cavemen file class action lawsuits. If that is not enough -- everyone in the show is totally hot as shit. Venue: Theatre 99 280 Meeting Street Charleston, SC Tickets: |$5||ph#843-853-6687||

Saturday, July 18 STAND UP WITH KENNY Z 10:00 PM Kenny Zimlinghaus (aka Kenny Z) is a regular at the Charleston Comedy Festival and former Chucktown resident. Zimlinghaus is remembered best among locals as a wise-crackin' stand-up comedian and radio morning show host. (He currently can be heard on Sirius Satellite Radio's "Cosmo Radio" ch 111 and XM162). The Charleston City Paper says "Kenny Zimlinghaus has a shuffling and wry style that incongruously comes from a permanently smiling face and great skill in improvisation and left audiences ready for more". This show is fresh, uncensored and fall out of your seats funny a nd no doubt a great opportunity to see a rising stand-up star in a great setting.
