Tickle Your Funny Bone

Are you stressed about having to clean your house and cook a huge Thanksgiving meal? Does the thought of your in-laws invading your home cause you to consider therapy? If so, you'll need some comic relief before and after the holiday. Lucky for you Playhouse on Park has the answers.

Wednesday, November 23rd at 8:00pm is comedy night. Comedians Johnny Rizzo and Mike Jacobs will take the stage. Mr. Rizzo is an Emmy Award nominee for "Hot Summer Nights New England Comedy Festival". He's appeared at all the top comedy clubs including Dangerfield's and Comic Strip. He has opened for acts like Jay Leno and Joan Rivers. His film credits include "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Crystal Skull". Mr. Jacobs' edgy and intensely personal brand of autobiographical humor traces its roots back to the North end of Hartford where he was voted "funniest kid" in the 6th grade. His stories of "life" are hilarious and relevant to all. Tickets are $15.00.

Friday, November 25th at 8:00pm is the CT Cage Match Series, a no holds barred competition where two improv teams compete in a head-to-head competition. The audience decides the winner and moves on to the next round. Tickets are $10.00.

Or maybe you'd like to listen to your aunt complain about her sciatic nerve. Perhaps you'd like to hear your lovable, yet belligerent grandfather regale you with "Back in my day." stories. I'll bet your mother would be happy to offer you advice on how she thinks you should live your life.

If you haven't already made up your mind, perhaps you should consider therapy.
