Goat Boy Speaks
The laughs continue at Bay Street Theatre’s Comedy Club on Monday, with Jim Breuer, a stand-up comedian, taking the mike. Raised UpIsland in Valley Stream, Mr. Breuer hit the big time when he joined the cast of “Saturday Night Live,” where he became known for his original character Goat Boy and for his impression of Joe Pesci, the actor. Since then, the comic has had roles in several movies, most notably “Half Baked,” in which he co-starred with Dave Chappelle. He was featured in Comedy Central’s “100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time.”
Just added to the comedic lineup is Colin Quinn, who will appear June 29. The satirist will “tackle 226 years of American Constitutional calamities,” according to the theater, in his show “Colin Quinn Unconstitutional.” No absurdity is spared, from predator drones to the Kardashians.
Tickets are $69, $62 for members, and are available at the box office or online at baystreet.org.
At the All Star Comedy Showcase, on June 17, the host Joseph Vescey will introduce several “rising” stand-up comics including Kenny Garcia, Vic Henley, Chris Clarke, and Mark Riccadonna. Tickets are $15 in advance and $25 on the day of the event.
