“At our core, we’re not just electronic dance music enthusiasts, we’re patrons of all things music, art, and culture. Having The Spotlight in our portfolio gives us the opportunity to diversify our programming, and lean into our passion for live music and fostering talent across the spectrum of every genre, while creating an intimate space for creativity in all forms to thrive.” – Kobi Danan, founder of Framework
Framework, one of the world’s leading independent purveyors of underground music experiences, opened The Spotlight in January 2024 as a beacon of entertainment for those seeking a sophisticated and vibrant night out on the town.
Designed with a 1960s speakeasy-inspired atmosphere and state-of-the-art L-Acoustics sound system, the intimate, 2,700-square-foot space has welcomed world-class house and techno talents like SG Lewis, Camelphat b2b Pete Tong, Dom Dolla, AMÉMÉ, Hayden James, and Damian Lazarus to its custom-built DJ booth.
Now, The Spotlight is broadening its horizons, venturing beyond music to offer a dynamic program of comedy, cabaret, and paint & sip experiences
The Spotlight Comedy series, which launched in October, runs every Tuesday night through December 17. Hosted by film producer and comedian Alex Hluch, the weekly series showcases top comics from HBO, Netflix, The Tonight Show, and more.
Opening night brought surprise performances from famed comedians Sheng Wang, Michael Lenoci, Brittany Ross, and Aiko Tanaka, setting the tone for a season filled with acclaimed acts and unexpected guest appearances.
Looking ahead, comedian, author, and Netflix star Iliza Shlesinger will join The Spotlight Comedy series on Tuesday, December 3. General admission tickets are available, in addition to premium packages that include light bites and drinks.
The Spotlight is also proud to present Mr. Fantastic’s Fantastic Fabricated Fiasco: A Toledo Show Affair, a dynamic cabaret experience hosted by the legendary Toledo Diamond. Known as the “coolest cat working in Hollywood” and the “underground king of LA,” Toledo has built an impressive career working alongside icons like Janet Jackson, Sammy Davis Jr., Diana Ross, and Paula Abdul, and has held popular residencies at renowned venues such as Petit Ermitage and Harvelle’s Jazz Club.
His newly-minted residency at The Spotlight features expertly-crafted choreography tailored to the venue, and following a packed out cabaret event earlier this week, Mr. Fantastic’s Fantastic Fabricated Fiasco will return to The Spotlight on Monday, December 9. General admission tickets are available, in addition to premium packages that include light bites and drinks.
On top of its comedy and cabaret offerings, The Spotlight has also partnered with Fever Up to present Neon Brush, an immersive paint & sip series where guests can create artwork under vibrant neon lighting, guided by a professional artist and accompanied by ambient music. Neon Brush events are scheduled throughout November and December.
Additionally, Fever Up and The Spotlight also partnered up to offer a unique blindfolded dining experience ‘Dining in the Dark’ starting in December. The experience will heighten the senses of patrons as they indulge in a three-course menu, transforming each bite into an extraordinary adventure.
Menu offerings include meat, seafood, and vegan options that can accommodate pre-selected dietary restrictions. Dining in the Dark will host two seatings at 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, December 14, Saturday, December 28, and Saturday, January 11.
The Spotlight’s dynamic extended programming reaffirms Framework’s commitment to blending a passion for blending music, art, and culture into a vibrant, intimate space that celebrates every genre and form of artistic expression.
