Former “Best of Austin” comic Brently Heilbron returns for his first show here in five years. Described by the Austin Chronicle as “one of the most prolific and inventive comics anywhere”, Brently likens his new carny style to a threesome between P.T. Barnum, Lenny Bruce and Sandra Bernhard. This excitable native Texan takes the audience on a hilarious ride through the new era of show biz animals & animatronic entertainers, including an end-all battle royal with the melon-smashing suicidal ghost of comedy past. His debut comedy CD, PHANTOM PARADE OF LOVE, is out now from Vaudeville Heartthrob Recordings. Get it locally at Waterloo Records.
Wednesday and Thursday nights at the Hideout Theatre. Tickets go on sale at the Hideout box office 30 minutes before the shows. $10. Call (512) H-I-D-E-O-U-T for more information.
