ST. GEORGE – Jokes are serious business over the next six months at the borough's North Shore.
Starting Nov. 1, the historic St. George Theatre has lined up a host of male headliners plucked directly from the top comedy clubs on the national touring circuit. (And before you cry sexism, don't forget that Joan Rivers was just at the St. George in May ... and her voice is loud enough to drown all these dudes out).
Anyway, first up: Standup comedy veteran John Pinette, fresh off a Comedy Central special earlier this summer, bring his "Still Hungry" tour to the venue next Friday. This portly talent (who's appeared everywhere from the final episode of "Seinfeld" to the Broadway stage as Edna Turnblad in "Hairspray") is fresh out of rehab so the night should be particularly interesting.
The following Saturday, the sitcom world's "King of Queens" turned movie star ("Grown Ups," "Paul Blart: Mall Cop") – Emmy nominee Kevin James – makes his return to the standup comedy stage.
But that's just the beginning.
After new year strikes, everyone from quirkball improv duo Two Man Group to the legendary Bill Cosby will take the St. George Theater stage.
Check out the infobox below for available showtime and ticket details. For potential (or inevitable, most likely) additions to the performance schedule, visit StGeorgeTheatre.com.
