His musical expression can be described as Soulful Benga blended with layers of percussive sounds drawn out from the vast diversities of East African instrumentation.

L augh Therapy Workplace Edition

Your job is stressful enough, so we figured it’s time to let comedians deal with it. This time at the Joke Machine, it’s the Work Edition , where your workplace problems become comedy gold! Got a nightmare boss, a coworker who never pulls their weight, endless meetings, impossible deadlines, office drama, or a group chat that should honestly be evidence in a case? Write your work-related problem on a piece of paper, drop it in, and watch our comedians attempt to solve it with nothing but jokes. This may not replace HR, professional advice, or actually quitting that job… but it might make Monday feel a little less painful. Bring your coworkers, your work bestie, or the office gossip crew and come laugh about the things you’re usually only allowed to complain about privately. Come Hungry! Full kitchen and bar available throughout the event, with Happy Hour specials from 4–7PM. Bring the work problems. We’ll bring the punchlines.

The Millennials Cookout with KK | Kym Nickdee | UV | Venom Freshkid | BV Accurate

We may have grown up, but clearly we never grew out of knowing how to have a good time. And before 2026 comes to an end, we have ONE MORE Cookout in us. One more day to sing every 90s & 2000s banger like we wrote it. One more day for old-school vibes and those “remember when…” conversations that somehow turn into hours. Because as life gets busier, moments like these mean a little more.

Suave After Dark

When the lights dim at Suave Kitchen & Social Club, the night shifts into something a little more electric. Suave After Dark is where the venue transforms into a late-night playground of comedy and conversation. It is looser, riskier and often funnier than the main show. Comedians try wild material and the room takes on the feeling of a late-night house party with a stage. You might hear stories that would never make it into the early show. You might end up staying much longer than planned. It is intimate, unpredictable and alive. Full kitchen and bar service available throughout the event
