See & Do: Comedy: An Evening with Jon Stewart

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

seedo4-1_01.jpgWhen he’s not spoofing the headlines and tweaking the noses of presidential aspirants, “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart hits the stage to … well, spoof the headlines and tweak the noses of presidential candidates live and in person. AN EVENING WITH JON STEWART should remind fans that before he changed the face of media and political satire, Stewart was one stand-up guy (as in comedian). The co-author of the critically acclaimed and best-selling 2005 America (The Book), which won a Grammy for Best Comedy Album for its audio version, has won 10 Emmys for his work on the show. Stewart will perform two shows Sat., MAY 10. $47-$77. 7:30 and 10 p.m. Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, 2800 Cobb Galleria Parkway. 770-916-2800. www.cobbenergycentre.com or www.ticketmaster.com.
