Cage Match for Comedy Festival

Words of inspiration from Chris Rock in a National Public Radio interview:

“Anything you can suck at should make you nervous. One should always be cognizant of how bad it could go.”

That nervousness helps keep Chris Rock on his toes, he says. But the ever-present possibility of spectacular crashes also explains the thrill we find in live theater (and high-wire acts and auto racing).

Which begs the question: How doubly thrilling would it be to eyewitness two top-notch comedy teams clash head-on?

The answer awaits you April Fool’s Day, 8 p.m. at ComedySportz, 420 S. 1st St., Milwaukee. Catch the Improv Comedy Cage Match Fundraiser. Your $8 admission will help support the Aug. 4-7 return of the Milwaukee Comedy Festival.

Get those April 1st tickets online – fast.

Because you have to be there to be an eyewitness. That’s why.
