Fedora-clad comedian Robert Buscemi's stage presence may be self-assured, but that's just a giant misdirection for the sheer amount of squirmy situations the sharply dressed performer gets into, according to his material: Buscemi doesn't shy away from any topic, be it his gossamer body hair, forgoing vegetarianism for chunks of whale meat, or the inadequate levels of fluid in his sperm. While the comic has left for Los Angeles like so many before him, chances are the longer he remains among a city so usually stereotyped as superficial, the weirder his tales will become. Although he still passes through Chicago with commendable frequency, potentially interested fans can get a whiff of his stream-of-consciousness stories on either of his one-hour stand-up films, (T)wit! or Squozen.
