What other city can say their mayor is doing a standup routine at UCB? Enough said. Go for guest monologist Mayor Karen Bass (who also recently made a cameo on John Mulaney’s Netflix series), but stay to enjoy comedy from improvisers including Evan Cleaver, Aricia Skidmore-Williams, Phil Augusta Jackson, Ronnie Adrian, Lamar Woods, and Caroline Martin, all doing variations on Juneteenth themes.
