Comedian Carl LaBove calls himself a “scene-ist,” performing scenes instead of jokes with punch lines, and one of his most popular scenes is about teaching self-defense to wildebeests. “That is the dumbest animal I’ve ever seen in my life,” he says. “Two thousand pounds, horns, hoofs — lions run up and eat them like apples. And they just stand there and allow themselves to be eaten…You’re at home watching TV yelling, ‘Kick! Kick!’” 8 p.m. Thursday, 8 and 10:30 p.m. Friday, 7, 9 and 10:45 p.m. Saturday. Laff Stop, 526 Waugh Drive. For information, call 713-524-2333 or visit www.laffstop.com. $15 to $20.
Jan. 29-31, 2009
