We can’t truly shine until someone cracks us.” That line is from Sean Patton’s most recent stand-up special, Number One; it could double as a short description for his comedic method, which examines the weirdness of life around us and the even weirder stuff going on in our own heads. With Tanael Joachim and Bassam Shawl. Shows at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 28, 7:30 and 10 p.m. on Dec. 29-30, and 5:30, 8 and 10:30 p.m. on New Year’s Eve.
