The Laughing Skull Lounge is the smallest comedy club in the Metro Atlanta area. A small, 74-seat club, the Laughing Skull is an intimate space where comedians can talk with the audience, though there are some tiered bench seats in the back to help you avoid being heckled or invaded by the comics. This makes for a fun experience that you would not find in larger clubs. The Laughing Skull is located at the back of the Vortex Bar and Grill.
