Hari Kondabolu

Hari Kondabolu, a comedian who likes to joke about his ethnic background and the way people always ask him where he's from, has been called "one of the brightest and most politically engaged young performers in New York," and Kondabolu, who originally worked as a human rights organizer in Seattle, got rave reviews for his debut album, Waiting For 2042. He was also a writer and correspondent for the Chris Rock-produced show Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell. He performs at 7 tonight at Hilarities, where he has shows scheduled through Saturday.
