Jeff Capri's style touches on ev
erything from the tacitly mundane to
the ridiculous. His appearances range
from comedy clubs and national tele
vision appearances to a USD celebrity
tour. His ability to work clean while
keeing a caustic cyni
cal edge is evidence
of a well-seasoned
professional.
Capri has ap
peared
alongside
many respected en
tertainers, including
Ellen DeGeneres, Tim
Allen, and Sinbad.
Michael Pace’s
facial expressions and
punch lines have
been compared to
Silly Putty and Sun
day comic strips. So
it’s no surprise that he has had audi
ences across the country laughing in
the aisles at The Improv, The Icehouse,
and the Comedy Store.
Most recently, he can be seen on
HBO's award-winning series Curb
Your Enthusiasm. This Emmy award
nominee (for his work as host on
Comic Relief) is hilarious enough to
have opened for top-name comedians,
including Jerry Seinfeld, Ellen
Degeneres, and Drew Carey - making
him a comedian’s comedian.
Comedy on the Coast begins at 8 p.m.
for this age 21 and over event. Doors
open at 7:30 p.m., with a no-host bar.
Tickets are $12.
