    Mic Drop Comedy club from San Diego to open outlet in Plano

    A new comedy club is coming to Plano: Called Mic Drop Comedy, it's a boutique club founded in San Diego, and it will open at 7301 Lone Star Dr., in the former home of Plano House of Comedy.

    According to a release, the space will undergo a month-long remodel and rebrand in December. Doors will close on December 9 and reopen in early 2025.

    Founded in 2022 by friends and industry veterans Hillary Hutson and Casey Currier, Mic Drop Comedy — which also has a location in Chandler, Arizona — is known for over-the-top, elaborate, and art-centric designs, and Plano will be no exception.

    Attendees can expect floor-to-ceiling hand-painted murals to the theme of Disney’s animated movie Robin Hood, executed by California-based muralists Carly Ealey and Christopher Konecki, who will use spray paint to graffiti every inch of the venue. That'll include a hyper-realistic animal mural behind the bar, with stained glass windows, wood carvings, and a massive storybook door that will take visitors into the fictional town of Nottingham and Sherwood Forest in Central England.

    There's more: The space will feature 3-D bows & arrows, decorative English flags, and bathrooms tricked out to look like a forest oasis. The performers' green room will feature a deep green, rustic tree-house feel.

    Performers
    Their goal will be to bring big names to Plano, while still providing a boutique experience for comedy enthusiasts.

    Focused on diversity and inclusion, upcoming national-touring headliners include Ms. Pat, Kevin Nealon, Preacher Lawson, Alfred Robles, and more.

    Mic Drop Comedy Plano will hold 90-minute shows every Wednesday through Sunday. They'll also host themed events, weekend brunch, social media giveaways, and comedy classes for all ages, including a six-week children’s comedy course instructed by industry professionals that will end with a live audience performance.

    They'll have food and drink including a full dinner menu and extensive cocktail menu, all scratch-made, with specialty items not found elsewhere and no drink or food minimum.

    “We’re beyond excited to bring the Mic Drop Comedy experience to Plano and the surrounding areas,” says co-owner Hillary Hutson. "This isn’t just a remodel—it’s a reinvention of what a comedy club can be. From the stunning Robin Hood-themed graffiti-styled designs to our commitment to diversity and inclusion, we’re creating a space that feels immersive, welcoming, and completely unique. We can’t wait to bring some of the biggest names in comedy, along with unforgettable experiences, to this vibrant community.”

    Turn Cancer Upside Down

    Figure skating legend Scott Hamilton brings holiday ice show to DFW

    Scott Hamilton, the 1984 Olympic gold medal-winning figure skater known for his signature backflip, is coming to Dallas-Fort Worth for a holiday ice show and "Frozen 5K" fundraising mega-event.

    The fundraiser portion ties into Hamilton's public battle with testicular cancer in the 1990s, which led him to found the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation in 2014. The nonprofit's mission is to fund innovative, patient-centered, targeted treatments that fight cancer while preserving quality of life.

    One of its fundraising events is the Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer ice shows, which bring Hamilton and other world-class athletes to rinks around the country.

    NYTEX Sports Centre in North Richland Hills is hosting a holiday version on Saturday, December 20 at 7 pm, where Hamilton will emcee and Olympians Mariah Bell, Ashley Cain, and Polina Edmunds will perform.

    Tickets range from $32.75 to $79, with proceeds benefiting UT Southwestern Medical Center in addition to the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation.

    "This isn’t just an ice show - it’s a celebration of hope, resilience, and community," the city of North Richland Hills says in a Facebook post. "Expect breathtaking performances, holiday cheer, and the chance to see world-class athletes light up the ice, all while supporting a cause that will touch so many."

    If you'd like to get out on the ice yourself, you can register for the Frozen 5K on December 21 and skate 35 laps to honor and remember those impacted by cancer. The $35 registration fee includes a T-shirt, or you can donate extra to receive other Sk8 to Elimin8 Cancer swag.

    DFW-only fundraising incentives include an autographed program ($500), a VIP meet-and-greet plus autographed program ($1,000), or the chance to perform at the holiday ice show (top fundraisers only — see more info here). Better start stretching.

    It's the perfect time for Hamilton to bring his ice show to North Texas. Ice rinks are a huge holiday trend for 2025, with kids of all ages gliding and spinning on special pop-up rinks from Grapevine to Garland to the all-new CultureMap City Rink in downtown Dallas.
