Comedy vs. Art Smackdown Saturday, February 27, 2010
Despite his decidedly downbeat resume (Nihilist Party presidential candidate, Nihilist Olympics organizer, Lunatic Fringe host), Elisha Shapiro still appreciates a good joke. As if to prove that very point, he's curating the "Comedy vs. Art Smackdown," a monthly evening of standup that even the most nihilistic of nihilists would appreciate. This time around, the artistes d'absurd include Josh Fadem (Acid Reflux Hour), Jan Davidson (Funniest Mom in America), Heather Thomson ("Most Adorable Comic") and Matt Sager (The Joey Gold Show). Quoth Thomson, on romance: "I tried being with women, but then I realized vaginas are not like ice cream. You can't just eat it every time a boy makes you sad." Highways Performance Space, 1651 18th St., Santa Monica; Mon., March 8, 7:30 p.m.; $5. (310) 315-1459. (Originally published in L.A. Weekly, March 5, 2010.)
