“Love on the Rocks is more than just a comedy show; it’s an experience that will inspire you to love yourself more and spread that love to others around you. Whether you’re single, taken, or somewhere in between, this is the perfect night out to celebrate the power of love. Bring your friends, your loved ones, or even come solo – because love knows no boundaries, and laughter is the universal language that unites everyone!”
