What to expect

Schwartz is a comedian and actor known for improv, voice work and a very quick sense of play. The "& Friends" billing points to a night built around guests and a loose, conversational format rather than a single stand-up set. The specific lineup has not been published on the listings we checked, so treat any guest names you see elsewhere as rumor until the venue or the official ticket page confirms them.

His own site, rejectedjokes.com, is the best place to check for announcements and to see what else he has coming up. If you are weighing a comedy night against other options, this is a big-room show with a recognizable name, which usually means a lively crowd and a lot of laughing in unison.

The venue

The Dolby Theatre sits inside the Ovation Hollywood complex, at the heart of Hollywood Boulevard. It is a large, polished theater with comfortable seating and good sightlines, so even the upper levels feel close to the stage. Expect security screening at the door, so leave time for it.

Getting there

Hollywood and Highland is the nearest Metro B Line station, and it is a short walk from the theater entrance. That is the easiest option on a Saturday night, when boulevard traffic and event parking both back up. If you drive, the Ovation Hollywood garage is the closest, and it fills up on show nights. Arrive early, grab dinner nearby, and plan for a slow ride out afterward.

Price is not listed on the sources we reviewed, so check the Ticketmaster page for current options before you commit. Resale prices can differ from face value, so buy through the official listing when you can.
