On Deck is a one-of-a-kind monthly comedy competition that blends team-based stand-up with a game-like scoring system. Two teams of three comedians each perform 27-minute sets, and every joke is rated as a single, double, triple, or home run. The team with the most runs takes the win. The concept began in Los Angeles, created by Mike Mulloy and Jamel Johnson, with early editions at NerdMelt and other LA venues, and hosts including Courtney Karwal and Mulloy. Today, Saad R. Alessa has become a leading proponent, continuing monthly LA shows and driving a touring component that brings On Deck to audiences beyond Southern California.
