Best Comedy & Stand-up in October 2024

David Sedaris at Cullen Theater

David Sedaris

David Sedaris is a Grammy Award-nominated humorist, writer, comedian, bestselling author, and radio contributor. Much of his humor is drawn from his unconventional North Carolina upbringing, his varied stream of odd-jobs (Christmas elf at Macy's, anyone?) and plays to his self-deprecating strengths, and now often concerns his life today in France with his partner.

Steve Trevino at Cullen Performance Hall

Steve Trevino

Steve Trevino AKA "America's Favorite Husband" is heading out on a brand new jaunt this year! Entering the cultural consciousness during the Pandemic with his hilarious skits on Tik Tok and Youtube, Trevino and his awesome wife Renae (AKA Captain Evil) helped millions of viewers find the funny in the madness of the time!

Drunk Shakespeare at The Emerald Theatre

Drunk Shakespeare

Take a journey to a mysterious hidden venue where mayhem awaits! Enter through a secret door and discover a glam cocktail bar and library where the infamous Drunk Shakespeare Society are ready to perform! But the main event really begins when one actor takes to the stage after at least five shots of whiskey and attempts to perform an entire play by William Shakespeare. No two shows are the same, four sober actors must try and keep the script going whilst one actor tackles the script through blurred vision and slurred words.

Ashley Gavin at The Improv

Ashley Gavin

Stand-up comedian Ashely Gavin is hitting the road for an new tour, kicking off early 2024!
