Comedian, writer and actor Brian Posehn is coming back to do stand-up in Sacramento, where he was born and educated. A writer and actor on Mr. Show, as well as a whole slew of other creative titles including a co-writer of Deadpool comic books and roles on sitcoms and movies, Posehn’s a bit of a jack of showbiz trades. He attended Sacramento State, and looking through the list of notable alumni, he appears to be the one of most famous stand-up comedians to come through. Sure, there are other amusing ex-Hornets: Tom Hanks is definitely pleasant and folksy, Carlos Alazraqui is another funny stand-up guy. Anyway, come get a taste of comedy from a successful, ex-Sacramentan. 2100 Arden Way, punchlinesac.com.
