"Without heroes, we are all plain people, and don't know how far we can go."-Bernard Malamud
On Monday, November 11, we celebrate Veterans Day to honor the men and women who have served our country. Like many Americans, we at Roosters have current and former military personnel in our immediate and extended families, and count lots of veterans among our friends. We are proud to support our active duty troops and those who have gone before them.
But, we're a comedy club, so we don't want to get too heavy, right? That's why we open our doors this week to all military personnel and veterans and invite them to get their laugh on!
Roosters is offering free admission to any Matt Kirshen show, Thursday November 7 through Sunday November 10 for all active duty, retired, or reserved military personnel, plus veterans of all branches and dependent spouses. Just call us for a reservation at 408.736.0921, and at the door show us your valid military ID, VA card, dog tags or other identifying item.
London born Matt Kirshen's precision wit has earned him an impressive
reputation on the international comedy circuit. Most recently his
appearances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Late Late Show with
Craig Ferguson, Paul Provenza’s Green Room, and as a finalist on NBC's
Last Comic Standing has earned him a whole new host of fans in the
United States and a surprising number of other countries worldwide.
His youthful looks disguise a veteran comic with almost a decade of
experience, and a wealth of smart, funny and relate-able material. While it's his prime-time
NBC appearances that most American comedy fans will recognize him from,
they are often surprised at the breadth and scope of his material,
described by one reviewer as "intelligent, but with the emphasis firmly
on the funny."
Appearing along with Matt is featured performer Jason Resler, himself a well-decorated veteran of the U.S. Navy. If you ask him, "Seaman Resler" will tell you lots of great tales from his time in service!
Reservations are strongly encouraged, seating will be general admission, and as always our two-item minimum purchase per person applies. Also, we're 21 and over only, and we will need to see your "regular" ID if you look young. Sorry, no discounts through the online ticketing service; You'll have to call the club at 408.736.0921 to reserve your spot.
