Jewish comedians Howard Stone, Andrea Michaels and Lisa Geduldig will co-headline the 5th and a Half Annual Café con Comedy, a standup event featuring six comics at 7:30 p.m. July 31 at Dolores Park Café, 501 Dolores St., S.F.
Stone uses his family as a springboard for tirades about pop culture, his Jewish roots, coping with mental illnesses and other absurdities of life. Part of the San Francisco comedy scene, he hosts a send-up of talk shows called “The Howard Stone Show With the Danny Dechi Orchestra,” and is also the co-creator of the Jesus Roast.
Michaels works professionally as a product namer, but she is also a champion Scrabble player, a crossword puzzle designer and a word nut of the highest order. Geduldig, the host, is best known as the creator of Kung Pao Kosher Comedy.
Other comedians on the bill are Ali Mafi, Yayne Abeba, Ronn Vigh. The show is a presentation of Kung Pao Kosher Comedy. Tickets are $7 to $15. For more information, go to www.brownpapertickets.com.
