Oh wait, that's a 'revised' Norm Macdonald quote. We saw him in 2017, one of my all-time faves. We've also seen Jerry Seinfeld and Al Franken, both were great. Plus a few others whose names escape me at present. But most of the live events we go to are plays. Annual memberships to three local theaters, plus from time to time Broadway and London's West End.
In the summer our local Old Globe Theatre always produces several plays by Shakespeare. A Midsummer Night's Dream and Much Ado About Nothing are two of my favorite comedies, so perhaps my comedic sense is old world. I also really enjoyed A Behanding in Spokane, we were 2nd row center and Christopher Walken was often just 15' away from our seats. Although it's commonly referred to as a black comedy, so there's that. Sam Rockwell was in it as well.
Could you do me the favor of recommending a few of your favorite comedians? I'd like to check them out, never hurts to raise one's threshold for humor!
Thanks!
