Comedy & Cocktails at Boston Harbor Distillery

Join us at Boston Harbor Distillery for a night of side splitting comedy and mouth watering cocktails! Thursday, February 12, 2026 Doors: 7pm Show: 8pm Boston Harbor Distillery 12R Ericsson St. Dorchester, MA 02122 Parking available on-site Matt MacArthur discovered his love of doing stand up comedy as a college student, and since has been performing at clubs and venues all over New England. As well as being a comedian, Matt also became a professional bagpiper at a young age, and since has been performing at churches and cemeteries all over New England. A regular on the Boston comedy scene, Matt has shared the stage with names such as Lenny Clark, Annie Lederman, and Jim Gaffigan. From a field of 150 comedians, Dave Rattigan "passed" at Boston's famed Comedy Connection on just his 15th time on stage, and has been a fixture on the Boston scene for two-and-a-half decades since then. His CD has been played on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, as well as AM/FM stations across the country and as far away as Ireland. He performed multiple times on the syndicated Steve Katsos Show and has performed in commercials for Olympia Sports and iParty that have played on New England regional TV stations. He’s performed in Dublin and Kilkenny, Ireland as well as at the Hampton Beach Comedy Festival (NH), Boston Comedy Festival, Women in Comedy Festival, and Salem Comedy and Spirits Festival. As the “funny kid” in school, Jason Merrill had always dreamed of making it in comedy. He found that whenever he was having a rough day, making people laugh always put a smile back on his face. With the support of his wife and daughters, Jason decided to pursue his ultimate goal. Starting with open mics in 2018, he soon began to feature at comedy clubs around the New England area. You may recognize him from Giggle’s Comedy Club, Lots of Laughs Comedy Lounge, Headliner’s Comedy Club, and Nick’s Comedy Stop. It wasn’t long until he started working with some other comics in the area, such as Lenny Clarke, Steve Sweeney, Tony V, Christine Hurley, and many more!
