SUMMARY:Mark Normand: Ya Don't Say Tour @ Rialto Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Mark Normand is a fun-loving\, New York comedian. Ok\, I’m gonna brag a little here but hey\, you’re on the site so that must mean you’re somewhat interested. I don’t know\, I’ve just seen other comics do this. Ah screw you\, I’m proud of these credits! Sorry\, I got worked up there. (I just wanna be liked) \nSo far\, Mark has done a One-Hour Comedy Central special “Don’t Be Yourself”\, a Comedy Central HALF HOUR special\, has appeared on TBS’s CONAN 6 times\,  Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon\, Late Show with Stephen Colbert\, Showtime’s “Live at SXSW”\, INSIDE AMY SCHUMER\, TruTv\, Best Week Ever\, MTv\, Last Comic Standing\, @Midnight and released an album with Comedy Central records titled “Still Got It” (it’s not bad). This year\, Mark took first place at the Great American Comedy Festival competition. In 2013 won Caroline’s March Madness competition\, beating out 63 other comedians. And this is a real shocker for all of us\, but he was also voted Village Voice’s “Best Comedian of 2013”\, I know\, right? In 2012\, Mark appeared on “John Oliver’s New York Standup Show” on Comedy Central\, and in 2011 was picked as one of Comedy Central’s “Comics to Watch.” \nMark was born and raised in New Orleans\, LA surprisingly to two normal parents. As a kid he spent most of his time shooting short films and wetting the bed. He started doing comedy right after college and quickly moved to New York. Mark now does comedy clubs and colleges across the country and has been involved in many festivals including Portland\, Seattle\, DC\, Boston\, Vancouver\, Melbourne and in 2013 was featured as a New Face at the Montreal Comedy Festival. \nMore annoying accolades that no one really cares about: Mark was named one of Comedy Central’s Comics To Watch for the 2011 New York Comedy Festival. Mark was also named Esquire’s “Best New Comedians 2012”\, Splitsider’s “Top 10 Up and Coming Comedians on Each Coast”\, and Time Out New York’s “21 New York Comedy Scene Linchpins”. Whew\, sorry about all that. \n  \n\nImportant Event Info: Doors 6PM | Show 7PM | Reserved Seating | All Ages | Public On Sale – 10/6 10AM\n______\nTo provide a safer environment for the public and significantly expedite fan entry into our venues\, Rialto Theatre & 191 Toole have instituted a clear bag policy as of March 1st\, 2022. \nThe policy limits the size and type of bags that may be brought into our venues.

SUMMARY:Ari Shaffir: The Wrong Side of History Tour @ Rialto Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Important Event Info: Doors 6PM | Show 7PM | Reserved Seating | All Ages | Public On Sale – 9/22 10AM\n______\nTo provide a safer environment for the public and significantly expedite fan entry into our venues\, Rialto Theatre & 191 Toole have instituted a clear bag policy as of March 1st\, 2022. \nThe policy limits the size and type of bags that may be brought into our venues. The following is a list of bags that will be accepted for entry: \nBags that are clear plastic or vinyl and do not exceed 12in x 6in x 12in\nOne-gallon clear plastic freezer bags (Ziploc bag or similar)\nSmall clutch bags\, approximately 5in x 7in\nAll bags subject to search. \nClear bags are available for sale at the box office. \nBio: \nAri Shaffir is an American standup comedian. In addition to his numerous appearances on the Joe Rogan podcast\, he is best known for his last special\, “Jew\,” which has garnered almost 6 million views and was written up in The NY Times in its list of best specials of the year. You might also know Ari from the storytelling show he created and hosted on Comedy Central called “This Is Not Happening.” Ari also has a Netflix special called “Double Negative” and a Comedy Central special called “Paid Regular.” Ari Shaffir has also appeared on WTF with Marc Maron\, The Adam Carolla show\, Your Mom’s House\, 2 Bears 1 Cave\, Theo Von’s podcast\, Andrew Schulz’s podcast\, TigerBelly\, and many many more. These appearances have made him a favorite in the comedy podcast world. His own podcast\, Ari Shaffir’s Skeptic Tank is a chart topper that comes out every week wherever you watch or listen to podcasts. Ari is the reigning president of the LOS podcast to which he has no affiliation. And he placed first in the non-steroid category of the legendary Sober October challenge\, which he also destroyed shortly thereafter so he could found Protect Our Parks with Shane Gillis and Mark Normand which he fooled Joe Rogan into hosting. The deal is\, this is a dirty show. It’s not completely offensive but definitely some parts are offensive. So don’t bring that one friend in your friend group who makes that tsk noise a lot. Just tell them you’re doing something else or your grandmother died or your grandmother killed somebody and you gotta be a character witness. Whatever. Just don’t bring them. But everybody else for sure come. Ari puts on a hilarious show every year of all new material and he brings amazing openers. So it’s just a really funny night of legit mainstream standup and you’re going to have a great time every time.
