Between his on-point comedy specials, his well-documented Twitter rants, and his ability to infiltrate all of our favorite television shows, including his epic Star Wars filibuster on Parks and Recreation, Patton Oswalt is basically a comedy God -- give or take the Adonis physique and the fact that he doesn’t believe God. Although he might change his mind for a sweet slice of sky cake. Despite being busy with fatherhood and new film projects, the silver screen fiend has somehow found it in his schedule to grace Phoenix’s comedy club stage for one night.

Oswalt performs on Saturday, January 24, at Stand Up Live, 50 West Jefferson Street. The 7 p.m. show is already sold out, but as of this writing tickets still remain for the 10 p.m. performance. General admission is $30 with a two-drink minimum. For details, visit www.standuplive.com or call 480-719-6100.

Sat., Jan. 24, 7 & 10 p.m., 2015
