The first act has been announced for this 20th year of PYGMALION. Comedian Joe Pera will be performing at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts on Saturday, September 21st, at 7:30 p.m. From the bio:
Pera is best known for his Adult Swim series, “Joe Pera Talks With You,” which The LA Times refers to as ‘TV’s quietest, most artful comedy’. He has performed his subdued standup on Conan, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and Comedy Central. After his animated special “Joe Pera Talks You to Sleep” (which many have found to work), he followed up with other projects for Adult Swim including “Joe Pera Helps You Find The Perfect Christmas Tree” and “Relaxing Old Footage with Joe Pera.”
Check out his comedy special on YouTube for a taste of his comedy style.
There will be a ticket presale on March 14th beginning at 10 a.m. Sign up for the email list to get the presale code. Tickets go on sale to the general public on March 15th at 10 a.m.
