On the heels of debuting his own show on Adult Swim, Joe Pera Talks With You, the comedian (pictured) and three of his writers and fellow show performers hit Madison for a night of bizarre character stand-up. Despite being in his 20s, Joe Pera delivers all of his jokes in the style and voice of a man at least 50 years his senior, and never in a mocking way. There is something about the earnestness of Pera’s performance as an elderly man and the dissonance between the performance and his actual appearance that makes his (grand)dad jokes land as hilariously as they do. Fellow comedian Jo Firestone also performs as a character older than she is, a doting and at-times condescending, therapist/teacher figure. With Conner O'Malley, Dan Licata.
