What's So Funny? Tig Notaro on the Power of Humor with Janet Varney
Tig Notaro was already popular among comedy nerds, but when she was met with a series of unfortunate circumstances that included the death of her mother, the ending of a relationship, and being diagnosed with breast cancer, she didn't mope. She turned it into material for a comedy act that would elevate her to legendary status. The good news is that she's going to be in San Francisco this weekend. The bad news is that the show is sold out, but there may be a very slim chance to get tickets. But the silver lining to all this is that you can watch a live stream of the show on the JCCSF website.
When: 8 p.m., Friday, November 1
Where: Jewish Community Center of San Francisco, 3200 California St.
Kevin McDonald
You've seen him on various TV shows, but probably recognize him as "that guy" from The Kids in the Hall. In fact, he's one of the two guys who found the comedy group. Well, "that guy" is Kevin McDonald and he'll be gracing us with his funny presence for a multitude of showtimes and days.
When: Various times, November 6-9
Where: Punch Line Comedy Club, 444 Battery St.
