About Straight for Pay:

Straight for Pay is a monthly outdoor comedy show at Permanent Records Roadhouse LA featuring comedians from Netflix, Comedy Central, HBO, JFL, and more! (scroll down for past lineups)

“The comedians are either straight, or willing for the right price, but most of them are gay for free.” says Connors, who founded Straight for Pay in late Summer 2021 as a backyard monthly show. “I book my favorites, most of whom happen to be queer, and curate shows so audiences see diverse lineups offering radically different perspectives, versus the typical one-woman-buried-in the-20-guys-slinging-dick-jokes at an old school comedy club.” The philosophy resonated with audiences and developed a cult following among LA’s indie scene with the likes of Meg Stalter, Rory Scovel, Sheng Wang, and Hannah Einbinder performing to sold-out audiences with no formal advertising or press. The show then went on to become a popular weekly queer showcase for over a year at The Glendale Room, before finding its new home at the iconic Permanent Records Roadhouse in Los Angeles in the spring of 2024.
