Profile

Leave it to well-connected and multitalented Michael Showalter and Eugene Mirman to find the best mix of format and talent for a comedy show. Judging by this weekly event, we think they’ve got fine taste in venues, too. This Sunday, the intimate space in Union Hall’s lower level will host Todd Barry and Mike Birbiglia, who along with Showalter and Mirman will pack an hour and a half with screwball stand-up, stories, skits, and short films. Get there on time—latecomers typically get turned away. — Elizabeth Cline
