You might recognize Kyle Cease from his comedy special, from his short-lived role on Comedy Central’s Reality Bites Back (he was the first comedian voted off the reality-show parody), or from his numerous appearances on the regular list of late night talk shows. His goofy, mile-a-minute delivery has him humorously speeding through topics such as his Grandma’s Scrabble skills (“But she’s dead now, so who won in the long run?”) or responding to what-would-you-do-if questions (“What would I do? I would continue to eat my Funyuns.”) 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. $15.
