The Acme Comedy Club was just supposed to be a stopgap for Sarah Remus. After returning from the Peace Corps, she picked up a job waiting tables there by night, so she could search for a more permanent job by day. But soon she was hooked. The environment — full of humor, energy and creativity — was a perfect fit. So, when a position as the club's manager opened up, Sarah jumped at it.
Now, Sarah does everything from developing the club's promotions, marketing and media to dealing with audience members who heckle or have had too much to drink. But the reward for her hard work is sweet: The moment where a 250-person audience shares their first laugh together.
