Justin Schlegel at the Riot Act Comedy Club July 27, 2007

From HBO and one of the funniest guys around Riot Act is pleased to welcome our good friend and superupbeat funnyman Justin Schlegel July 27th and 28th for a weekend of good laughs and debauchery.

Considered to be one of, if not THE fastest rising star in the Baltimore/DC comedy scene, Justin Schlegel has a comedy style so wild and outrageous, you can't help but wait to see what pops out of his mouth next! One of the brightest young stars on the east coast, Justin can be found working many of the major clubs regularly throughout the year. His friendly demeanor with just a touch of paranoid schizophrenia is a huge hit with all audiences, ESPECIALLY paranoid schizophrenics (they have few heroes...). His style has been compared to Jim Carrey, and Brian Regan, but with a flavor that's all his own. He is also known for writing crappy bios, so if you ever have a "sub-par bio festival", please consider him as your keynote speaker. He lives alone with cats.

Justin was a finalist in the Funniest Person in Baltimore Contest, was the winner of "Five Seasons Amatuer Comedian Competition" and opened up for Riot Act's production of Mr. Bob Saget in November of last year and really rocked the house. Do not miss your chance to see this guy before he really blows up.

Riot Act is DC’s best new place to see comedy up close in a cool and intimate atmosphere. Located right below the great HR-57 Jazz Club, Riot Act offers the greatest comedy shows nightly. Tuesdays are Open Mics, Wednesdays are alternative comedy nights and Thursdays thru Saturdays we have national and local headliners from HBO, Comedy Central and Showtime. Riot Act even allows customers to bring their own beverages for just a $3 uncorking fee. Customers also welcome to visit the best jazz club in town right upstairs right after the show for just $5.
