GET IT!?
A Stand-Up Comedy Game Show
with host Joe Klocek
Friday, Jan. 26 | 8 PM
Part stand-up. Part game show. All fun. Audience members have a chance to test how well they understood a stand-up comic's set in real time! After a comic performs, audience members are questioned about what they just laughed at. Whoever gets five questions correct first wins the round! After two rounds, the winners face off in a third and final Speed Round to decide who will be the champion of Get It!? This show features our new cabaret-style seating for a fun, interactive experience.
Joe has appeared on Comedy Central’s "Live at Gotham" and NBC's "Last Comic Standing" and was a commentator for the Emmy award-winning documentary, "A Bridge so Far." Joe has also told a story on NPR's "Snap Judgment" and San Francisco's "Bawdy."
