DTLA: Historic Core, in Central L.A.

The Regent Theater

Comedy Venue · 448 Main St

Official siteDirections

A restored 1914 Downtown theater where comedy joins concerts, dance nights, films and festivals on the same sloped-floor stage.

The Regent spent decades as a movie house before closing in 2000 and reopening as a live-event venue after a restoration completed in the 2010s.

Stand-up here is theater-scale and occasional, useful when a comic needs more seats than a club but less formality than a performing-arts center.
