Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Young American Comedy Tour. Dull name, granted, but this annual tour of comics tears up the Improv whenever they stop by for their one-night stands, and they’re back for another go. Host Mike Young (who had a sitcom in the works with ABC titled Forever Young) and his boy-wonder yukmeisters skewer everyone from frat boys to grown-up guys with their sharp-witted shticks. There’s Freddy Lockhart, who does a pretty hilarious impression of Shaquille O’Neal doing Will Smith. And then there’s Jordy Fox, a scraggily-bearded jokester who has a funny routine about how fat women love cake (go figure). l Sebastian Maniscalco. Sam Tripoli, a favorite guest of The Late Late Show, rounds out out the smart-ass six-pack.
