Jerry Seinfeld playing the Orpheum Nov. 14
Over the past couple of years, Jerry Seinfeld has dressed up like a giant honeybee, bombarded us with promotions for Bee Movie, coined a term more irritating than “webisode” (“TV junior”), and consumed a spinach brownie on Oprah so his wife could sell cookbooks. In other words: He has a lot of comedy goodwill to win back, which he’ll hopefully do when he performs two shows on Nov. 14 at the Orpheum. Fortunately, if anyone can remind the public that he’s a very funny stand-up, it’s Seinfeld, the guy largely responsible for the casual, observational joke-telling style that most people now think of when they think “stand-up comedy.” Tickets go on sale Aug. 28. Pricing details have yet to be confirmed, but it's fair to assume each seat will cost significantly more than a chocolate babka.
