Jimmy Shubert to Record Comedy Special at Flappers Comedy Club

Comedian and actor Jimmy Shubert (LAST COMIC STANDING, 2 BROKE GIRLS, KING OF QUEENS) will showcase his trademark pop culture humor on January 29 and 30 at Flappers Comedy Club and Restaurant in Burbank, including a live taping of his new comedy special on January 30. Show tickets are $20, and are available atwww.flapperscomedy.com.

Shubert fans will adore witnessing the behind-the-scenes excitement of his new live TV taping for Netflix. Recording on Saturday, January 30 at 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM, the audience will be able to participate in comedy history in the making.

Shubert combines the outlook of a modern-day Archie Bunker with an utterly real world sensibility to create signature observations about Yelp, airport security, relationships, and the dumbing down of America. His television credits include “Monk,” “Back in the Game,” ” 2 Broke Girls,” “Just Shoot Me,” “Heist,” “The Loop,” “ER,” “Reno 911,” “Rude Awakenings,” “Angel,” “Lucky,” and “New Car Smell.”

An accomplished actor and comedian, Shubert made the top 10 of the 2014 season of “Last Comic Standing.” Headlining top comedy clubs, casinos, and theaters nationwide, his one-hour standup special has won him award recognition. His full-contact comedy has led him to headlining the Comedy Store in Hollywood, the Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas, as well as appearing for five years on “King of Queens,” and on several episodes of “Entourage.”

It was Shubert’s scene-stealing performance as the lollipop-sucking strip club bouncer in GO, directed by Doug Liman(SWINGERS), that jumpstarted his film career in 1999. Since that auspicious debut, he has landed roles in such films such as THE ITALIAN JOB starring Charlize Theron, Ed Norton, and Mark Walhberg, and MR & MRS SMITH, starringBrad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

Proops joins festival line-up

Greg Proops is coming to the Glasgow International Comedy Festival to record an episode of his Smartest Man In The World podcast at Saint Luke’s Friday 18 March 20.00.

‘Here he is, though, in front of a live audience each week, bravely recording some of the boldest comedy on the podcasting fronteir right now.’ (Rolling Stone Magazine

It’s just Greg Proops and you. There’s no fan fare. Proops take centre stage at a small table and chair setup with a single microphone. Then he’s off. An hour of great two-way conversation into the lecture-style format of a one-way conversation. 

Be there and experience joy for once in your life.

 

Greg Proops Releases “In the Ball Park” Album

Whether it comes to wit, verve, his command of the English language, and his seemingly inexhaustable knowledge of the world, Greg Proops never lets up.

On his sixth record, In The Ball Park, Proops not only shows he can keep up with the changing times in comedy, but can thrive in it on his own terms. You’ll notice on this album, just like much of his discography, that Greg still shifts gears flawlessly between topics, ranging from gun control to white pants to baseball, jokes, jokes within jokes, etc. without needing to take a breath. 

You can see what we’re saying when you listen to this track.

In The Ball Park comes out on this Fri. Nov. 27th, but you can and should pre-order it now oniTunes or on vinyl from AST Records.
