Comedy Tonight: Plant Your Ass at Odd Duck Studio

Posted by Cienna Madrid on Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 3:38 PM

Capitol Hill's Odd Duck Studio has two great back-to-back shows lined up tonight that I HEARTILY recommend catching.

First: New York comedians Scott Moran and Mark Normand—who are both in town to compete in Seattle's International Comedy Competition—are taking the stage with TBTL host Luke Burbank for 90 minutes of hilarious chit chat (from what I can gather). Moran says, "If you enjoy laughter, you will enjoy this." (If you don't enjoy laughter, I have a basement condo full of cats to sell you.)

(1214 10th Ave, 7pm, $10)

Second: Comedian and former Seattle fixture Hari Kondabolu presents a set of ALL NEW MATERIAL about racism, baseball, and anything else that comes to mind. If you don't enjoy laughter, I have full confidence that Kondabolu will teach you how to (and if, after his set, you still don't enjoy laughter, you're probably Al Campanis).

(1214 10th Ave, 9pm, $6 in advance and $8 at the door)

OR...

Head down to the Comedy Underground tonight at 8pm for the last night of the first week of the 32nd Annual Seattle International Comedy Competition. Sixteen comedians, some who have come from across America and Canada for the chance to compete in this event, are doing powerful showcase sets. Tonight, the judges are all from the comedy industry (NBC, ABC, G4TV, OneReel, etc)--so, every comedian will be putting their best efforts on display.

There are five local comedians (plus three from Portland and one from Vancouver BC, to make certain the Pacific Northwest is well-represented) who would really appreciate your support tonight...as only five of the sixteen comedians in this week's group of comics will move on to the semi-finals.

This is the last time this group of sixteen excellent comedians will be performing as a group--your one and only chance to see this show.

Seriously...and no offense to the Odd Duck or either of the shows they've got going on tonight...but this competition show tonight is a great comedy event that you shouldn't miss.
