More About

Once you stop ogling comedian Anjelah Johnson, you’ll probably laugh at her. The former Oakland Raiders cheerleader left the glitz and glam of the sidelines for the thankless job behind an open mike. It paid off. Johnson caught the ears (and likely the eyes) of the folks at MADtvwith her impression of Vietnamese salon employees. The producers turned her bit into a character that debuted in the show’s 2007 season. Johnson still works it on stage (and by “it” we mean the impression — settle down, boys) along with plenty of rips into her family life and musings on her cheerleading days. 8 p.m. Thursday, 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 7:30 p.m. Sunday. The Improv, 7620 Katy Freeway. For tickets and information, call 713-333-8800 or visit www.improvhouston.com. $20 to $22.
Thu., Dec. 11, 8 p.m.; Fri., Dec. 12, 8 & 10:30 p.m.; Sat., Dec. 13, 8 & 10:30 p.m.; Sun., Dec. 14, 7:30 p.m., 2008
