Al Madrigal

When: Sat., Nov. 10, 7:30 p.m. 2018
Price: $29
Al Madrigal‘s stand-up comedy blends political satire with personal stories of marriage, family, and fatherhood. Madrigal is best known for his role as the “Senior Latino” correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart where he helped shed light on racism and anti-immigrant sentiments in the U.S. and had the chance to “drive tanks, swim with manatees, go to Mexico City and make a fake drug deal.” Since leaving The Daily Show, Madrigal has been busy doing stand-up; releasing a comedy special Shrimpin’ Aint’ Easy, in which he applies his comedic insight to topics like “cilantro politics,” anger management, and a wild tale of seafood revenge; and co-founding the All Things Comedy podcast network with Bill Burr. Madrigal currently stars in Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here, a series about stand-up in the 1970s.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
