In the spirit of Mondays Dark, Anderson created “The After Show” as a vehicle to give
back to the local, Las Vegas community, while giving a comedians a place to
congregate for impromptu laughs after their nightly gigs. Much like a comedy version of
MTV’s “Unplugged,” each performance will showcase a variety of talent that is never
advertised – guests won’t know until they take their seats in the audience.
Iconic comedian Louie Anderson, the three-time Emmy Award® winner, is one of the

sisters who were all a major presence in his life. Anderson won an Emmy Award for
