  • Dave Attell  (Comedy)
    DC Improv
    8:30 PM
    Dave Attell is known for his caustic wit and rapid-fire delivery that helped earn him the title as one of the Funniest People in America by Entertainment Weekly Magazine. In 2001, Attell used his love of laughter to create and host the hit series 'Insomniac with Dave Attell' for Comedy Central. After four seasons Attell taped several hour-long 'Insomniac' specials and a two-hour special for Comedy Central featuring Sean Rouse, Greg Geraldo and Dane Cook who are some of the biggest comics in the country.

  • Liz Phair  (Music)
    9:30 Club
    7:00 PM
    Liz Phair's 1993 debut, 'Exile in Guyville,' raised eyebrows with its no-holds-barred lyrics on sex and other taboos. She broke out briefly a year later with 'Whip-Smart' to both a more critical and a larger fanbase, despite her not touring and little radio airplay. After marrying in 1995, she worked infrequently on some new songs and finally issued 'whitechocolatespaceegg' in 1998. Her 2003 self-titled album boasts a more pop oriented sound, with tracks such as 'Why Can't I?' and 'Extraordinary' garnering wide radio airplay. In 2005 Phair released 'Somebody's Miracle,' and in 2008 she celebrates the 15th anniversary of 'Exile in Guyville' with an expanded reissue with bonus tracks.

  • Maria/Stuart  (Theater)
    Woolly Mammoth Theatre
    8:00 PM
    Stuart fights to keep the lid on his mother’s and aunts’ simmering angst. But the family’s secrets channel themselves into a bizarre shapeshifter that guzzles soda and chatters German verse. Friedrich Schiller’s classic tale of warring queens inspires a macabre romp into all that suburban America tries to repress.

    Donated to the library in 1925, the Benjamin K. Miller collection was the first complete collection of U.S. stamps ever assembled.
