The St. Louis Area Foodbank hosts its' first-ever comedy benefit starring headliner Mike Birbiglia with opening act Greg Warren. This is an all-ages event with all proceeds going to the Foodbank.
Funnyman Mike Birbiglia has performed in three “Comedy Central Presents” specials and appeared on Craig Ferguson, Conan O’Brien, David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon. He is best known for his award-winning one-man shows, My Girlfriend’s Boyfriend and Sleepwalk With Me, which straddle standup comedy and theater. He’s also a regular contributor on “This American Life” and “The Bob & Tom Show.”
Show opener Greg Warren has most recently been seen on “The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson,” Country Music Television’s Comedy Stage,” and Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend.” A favorite on the nationally-syndicated “Bob and Tom” radio show, Greg entertained in theaters across the country with his “Flute Man” bit from the show. He has built a strong fan base around the country with his act inspired by stories from his St. Louis upbringing.
