The Gruff Stuff

The competition in the reality show Last Comic Standing can be fierce. So it's impressive that comic Chris Porter finished third in Season 4. Porter has gone to some fame too. He can also be seen on his own “Comedy Central Presents” special and “Live at Gotham." According to his official bio, his "raw energy and unique perspective has distinguished him as one of the elite comics in the industry." Porter has a rather gruff delivery. He uses lots of slang and casually curses. In one bit about holding a door opening for "a pretty lady," he jokes about how he seldom receives proper credit for being a gentleman. The performance tonight begins at 8 and shows are scheduled through Sunday. Tickets start at $20.
