Beth Lapides created Un-Cabaret in reaction to reactionary mainstream comedy. It is an un-misogynistic, un-homophobic, un-xenophobic experiment in personal comic narrative. And it has led to some of the deepest, darkest, funniest rants and stories on any stage anywhere.

Un-Cabaret live shows have featured and fostered important modern comic voices like Julia Sweeney, Michael Patrick King, Larry Charles, Margaret Cho, Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Laura Kightlinger, Kathy Griffin, Greg Behrendt, Taylor Negron, Sherri Shepherd, Patton Oswalt, Jeff Garlin, Andy Dick, Janeane Garofalo, Dana Gould, Andy Kindler, Merrill Markoe and many others.

Un-Cabaret's Say the Word delivers the same stunning first-person confessional comedy in a more literary spoken word form at the Skirball Cultural Center since 2000.

Beth & Greg's teaching at the Un-Cab Lab has also spawned many alumni shows including the monthly Un-Cab Lab Show at M-Bar in Hollywood.

Un-Cabaret has produced many other live shows and events including:

The Other Network, a festival of the best un-aired TV pilots ever made introduced by their creators including Judd Apatow, Robert Smigel, Conan O'Brien, Bob Odenkirk, Ricky Blitt, John Riggi, Todd Holland and many more.
