Rosebud Baker
Comedy on State 202 State St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703
Comedian and actress Rosebud Baker’s style of stand-up is bitingly witty, drily self-deprecating, and utterly fearless about going very dark at times. For a good example, those unfamiliar should check out her 2021 Comedy Central special, Whiskey Fists; depending on your comic sensibility, it will either make you run in fear or fall in love and head straight to Comedy on State. Shows at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 29 and 7:30 and 10 p.m., Aug. 30-31.
