It's payback, of sorts, for anyone who's ever been the butt of some a-holes jokes, as the Laughing Skulls Comedy Festival grins its way into the Powerhouse tonight. As an audience member, you have the power to vote on your favorite funny guy or gal, and can either take these novice comedians down a notch or help send them on to stardom. Laughing Skulls is a 25-city comedy festival, in its second year running. This year, ten of the best in the Midwest will test their zest on Clevelanders, as they try to impress the audience and judges enough to make it to the next round, slated for Atlanta. So it's "be funny or die" in tonight's competition, where the winner will score cash, a contract, and a boost towards his or her dreams. The Laughing Skulls Comedy Festival is at the Cleveland Improv in the Powerhouse, 2000 Sycamore St. The competition starts at 7:30 p.m., and there will be a fee of $10.
