Fresh Faces
To everything there is a season, and summer in Madison in recent (non-pandemic) years has included a season for your face to hurt from laughing. Madison Comedy Week returns in 2021 bigger and better than ever, with almost 30 events over eight evenings at The Bur Oak, The Rigby and several other venues (including headliners Kevin Bozeman and Mary Mack at the Pursuit of Happiness Session at McPike Park on Aug. 6-7). Highlights during the first half of the week (at The Bur Oak) include the now-traditional “Madison Comedy Awards” ceremony (at 9 p.m. Sunday), and both Fresh Faces (7 p.m.) and Seasoned Vets (9 p.m.) showcases on Tuesday.
