Tomorrow I'm doing the DC Comedy Festival

7:30pm at The Comedy Spot in Arlington. (Ballston Mall)

"Laughing Liberally" political standup

3pm - Panel on Comedy and Politics

at Town Dance Boutique in NW DC

Actually, politics can be HILARIOUS. It's fodder for the late night monologues, blogs, parody shows and more. The question is, do these shows now influence the political discourse - even political OUTCOMES - more than the politics influence the punchlines? Join us and our exciting panel of experts to find out!

  • Mike Allen, Chief Political Correspondent, Politico(moderator)

  • Michael Cavna, Style TV/Theater Editor & Comics Blogger, The Washington Post
