Stand-up comedy show with Ian Bagg at Comedy Mothership, a two-room stand-up club in downtown Austin.
Ian Bagg headlines Comedy Mothership on Friday, October 16, at 7 PM. If you've never seen him, he's a Canadian comic who's spent a good chunk of his career on the late-night circuit, and this is a full stand-up set.
Bagg started out in Canada, where he played the Montreal Comedy Festival and filmed a Comedy Now special for CTV. He also spent some time in Newfoundland, where he once kissed a fish—a detail that's stuck with him. When he felt he'd done it all there, he took a train to New York City, lived in a youth hostel, and worked his way onto Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. That late-night background usually means a comic who knows how to read a room and keep things moving.
He's playing Comedy Mothership, the two-room stand-up club in downtown Austin that books national headliners alongside resident showcases and Kill Tony. It's at 320 E 6th St, right in the heart of the downtown scene, so it's an easy spot to get to if you're already out on 6th. The show is 21+, so make sure you've got your ID on you.
