“You Know You’re Portuguese If…”

Friday, 01/29/2010 – 9:00 PM

“Fall River’s Funniest Son’s” return to the Cultural Center with a comedy show that focuses on the funnier side of growing up Portuguese.  “You Know You’re Portuguese If…,” inspired by the countless e-mails Out of the Gutter has received with such crackups as you know you’re Portuguese if your parents still have plastic on the couch, or your whole back yard is a grape vine, the show will take audiences through laugh-out-loud scenarios, Improv comedy and the occasional Portuguese swear.

Comedy Night featuring Jim Colliton , Steve Calechman, & Joe Holden

at Narrows Center for the Arts on Friday, 01/29/2010 – 8:00 PM

Jim Colliton is a regular on cruise ships as well as being one of Boston's top headliners. He has performed in clubs and colleges across the country and is a regular at the Tropicana in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. Colliton has been seen nationally on Ed McMahon's "Next Big Star" and Comcast's "Comedy Spot Light." Jim turns real-life situations, into hilarious stories. His ability to interact with the crowd makes every show unique and has the audience feeling they are part of the performance.

Steve Calechman has been entertaining audiences for nearly two decades appearing with the likes of Bobcat Goldthwait, Steven Wright, Louie C.K. and Sarah Silverman. One of the ‘best kept secrets’ in the Boston comedy industry, Calechman is a favorite in clubs throughout New England and beyond.
Calechman’s twisted view of the world has him discussing the art of chest shaving, the difference between a sweet potato and a yam, and the consequences of objecting at a wedding.

Joe Holden is a regular at the Comedy Connections in both Boston and Providence. His rapid-fire style in which he talks about life experiences and outrageously funny premises has audiences roaring. Holden has shared the stage with some of the top names in the business and is one of the fastest rising stars in the industry.

Works by Christy Georg, Richard Metzgar, Leslie Schomp

Artists are a lot like alchemists. They take raw materials and transform them. Whether graphite, or steel, or ordinary things like string and wax, or cigarette butts and maps, a transmutation of materials is the essence for any work of art.
