Tired of swiping? In this dating experiment, men compete on stage for one lucky bachelorette, with the little caveat that the men can't speak. Through a series of games - which includes calling the boys' moms and unlocking their phones - we narrow it down to two men. Finally, we hear their voices, and the lucky winning man is sent with our bachelorette to the bar for an immediate date. Audience members wear wristbands according to their relationship status, and a wingcouple (who wears actual wings) helps those of you who are too shy to make a move. This show has been featured in LA Magazine, LAist, KPBS, San Diego Magazine, and more. Created and hosted by Allison Goldberg. Want to be in the show? Want to nominate a single friend?
