Part of the allure of seeing Louis C.K. is that any comedy fan can point up at the stage and say, “That’s me up there!” The same fits of joy, frustration, anxiety, and hilarity that haunt us all make their way into Louis C.K.’s jokes about race, family, aging, sex, eating, and so forth. He’s always personable and relatable onstage, not to mention in his fabulous FX sitcom Louie—heading for its third season June 28—which, like C.K.’s act of late, deals hilariously with being a recently divorced dad. Few other comics, alive or dead, perform with such well-honed intensity.
C.K. is set to return to Milwaukee Oct. 10 and 11 for a two-night stint at the Riverside Theater. Reserved seating tickets are $45, and are on sale now exclusively at louisck.com. As for why he’s chosen to sell tickets directly through his own website, C.K. explains: “This year, I’m trying something new, building on the fun, success, and fan-benefit of selling my content online...I’ve cut the ticket charges way down and absorbed them into the ticket price. To buy a ticket, you join NOTHING. Just use your credit card and buy the damn thing.”
