Ava Vidal (and Greg Shapiro) at Boom Chicago March 11
Ava Vidal’s comedy can make people a little uncomfortable, and that’s fine by her. The British comedienne takes pleasure in making people squirm.
Her story is unusual in that she was a mother at 18, a victim of domestic violence, and worked as a prison guard for four years before quitting to pursue her comedy career. Far from holding her back, her experiences have shaped her merciless comedy (and her personality).
Like Louis CK, she jokes frequently about her children, although you have to wonder how her kids, both well into their teens, can handle watching her on stage and still share a house with her. She claims favorites, admits to hypocrisy, and even ridicules her daughter’s weight problem! You’ll catch yourself laughing at jokes that you know you shouldn’t.
On March 11, Ava launches her Dutch tour at Boom Chicago! Greg Shapiro, Boom Chicago's American Nederlander presents the tour and performs as well. It will be a great night!
Doors open at 19:00 for dinner, show at 20:15. Make sure to grab your tickets now while they last at www.Boomchicago.nl or by calling the box office at (020) 423 0101.
