(SOUTH ORANGE, NJ) -- The South Orange Performing Arts Center (SOPAC) has a cure for the midweek slump—laughter! It is the best medicine, after all. On every first Wednesday of the month, settle in for an evening of laugh-out-loud comedy during SOPAC’s Laughs in the Loft, a stand-up series featuring several comedians in a New York City-style showcase. The next Laughs in the Loft performance—which features two New Jersey natives—is Wednesday, November 2 at 7:30pm. Tickets are $20. The lineup includes Marc Theobald, Andy Haynes, J August, and Dan LaMorte.

Marc Theobald – Marc has been seen on B.E.T’s Comic View, Showtime at the Apollo, Comedy Central’s Premium Blend, Chappelle’s Show, Last Comic Standing and Comics Unleashed. He’s worked as a writer for Tracy Morgan and been featured on the television show Delocated.

Andy Haynes – Andy is originally from Seattle and has been seen on Conan, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Colbert and his own Comedy Central special.

J August – J is a New Jersey native who recently returned from performances at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. J brings his unique lack of style back to New Jersey to celebrate his love for short commutes and his penchant for using the right word in the wrong situation.

Dan LaMorte – Dan is a New Jersey native who has been seen on Gotham Comedy Live and Getting Doug with High. His incredible story also includes his recent transformation, losing 185 pounds and becoming an ultra-marathon runner.
