Michael Kosta
The Daily Show is currently in a heyday of excellent correspondents, of whom Michael Kosta is the genial, clueless, handsome white guy. What you might not know about him is he is a former pro tennis player (of course he is). His standup tends to good-natured bemusement, relatable frustrations, and poking fun at himself. His four-show run at Comedy on State is well worth catching.
7:30 & 10 pm, 1/10-11. $35-$25.
