Rising
from the ranks of the unwashed standup masses, Eugene Mirman has made
it to the top of the comedy heap with his sardonic, goofy brand of
humor.Tonight he kicks off his titular comedy festival starring some of
the city’s best comics in a similar vein: Kristen Schaal, Bobby
Tisdale,Todd Barry.The opening night lineup features live acts as well
as video by Max Silvestri.There’s also a whole roast pig involved.
Bottom Line: You
might have gone to see a roommate’s improv troupe once, but don’t let
that sour you on comedy forever. Give Mirman a chance to do that!
