Brian Posehn
with JT Habersaat
at Parkway Theater
theparkwaytheater.com

Comedy legend Brian Posehn returns to The Parkway for a hilarious night of stand-up comedy. You may have seen the comedian on The Big Bang Theory as well as his various stand-up specials and albums. His comedy rock album, Grandpa Metal came out in 2020.

We last saw Posehn at Twin Cities Con in Nov 2024 and was surprised to learn how much he loves Neal Adams and George Perez: “Closing out the show was the Sunday Cosplay Contest. At the Hero stage, we have AmaLee, then comedian Brian Posehn. Posehn was a massive comic book geek (collects Neal Adams, loves “The Judas Contract” by Marv Wolfman and George Perez).”

‘The Godfather of punk rock stand-up comedy’ JT Habersaat to open. JT Habersaat is touring in promotion of his third book Doing Time. Habersaat also curates the Altercation Comedy Festival, which was named ‘one of the best comedy festivals in the world’ by Vulture.
