An Evening With His Royal Hipness Lord Buckley
- Full Price:
- $20.00
- Our Price:
- $10.00
'50s comedian Lord Buckley's jazz-influenced delivery and surreal use of language made him a major influence on Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor, among others. Jake Broder re-enacts his routines, backed by a live jazz trio, in a performance the Los Angeles Times has called "the coolest show in town." This tribute is a joyous celebration of the routines of the late counter-culture comedian who was a cabaret legend beloved of Al Capone and Frank Sinatra and who continues to influence pop culture today. You can expect laughs, shock, outrageous contemporary satire and some great tunes. Learn More

I'd been trying to get to this show literally for years and was very surprised by how nice the venue is, it don't look like much from outside.Written on Aug 21 2007
Beth Lapides was funny & very nice (she even gave me a tiny crystal!) and the talent was HYSTERICAL! Lauren Weedman (omg!) and the Sklar (spelling?) brothers - awesome. I am now going to see Beth's other show at the Comedy Central Stage this Wed. Thanks Goldstar!
