The Altadena Comedy Festival, a fundraiser for the Blue Star Families, starts today at 6 PM with an attempt at a record-setting group hug at the Coffee Gallery, 2029 N. Lake ($1 to charity to be part of the hug yourself).
There's a whole evening of comedy tonight to tickle your funny bone -- it's "Sketch and Improv Night," with well-known acts including Keilly & Roeters (pictured). Check the Altadena Comedy Festival website for the latest lineup and ticket information.
