MY FINAL SHOWS OF 2025!

This Thursday (tomorrow!), I’m doing back-to-back George Lucas Talk Shows at UCBNY!

7pm & 9pm ET

The 7pm show sold out quickly, but you can still get a livestream ticket to see it! Kathleen Turner + Rachel Zegler + Clark Gregg is a dream line-up!

The 9pm show still has a few tickets left -- David Patrick Kelly + Mary Beth Barone + Kate Micucci is another can't-miss guest combo!

We will also be doing our GLTS Labubu Raffle to benefit Feeding America. Friend of the show Maryellen DeVivo has designed 3 bee-yoo-tee-ful custom GLTS Labubus (George, Watto & Steven Charleston) and during the 9pm show we will draw 3 winners at random!

(No in-person Watto at these shows, but Griffin will be back in the new year for January GLTS at Dynasty Typewriter in L.A. and SF Sketchfest!)

ASSSSCAT & THE STEPFATHERS FRIDAY at UCBNY

7pm ET
9pm ET

Back-to-back Friday night shows!

I’ve been doing ASSSSCAT at UCB for over a decade, and next fall will mark my 15th year performing as a member of The Stepfathers.

I’ve been getting the feeling this year that there are fewer improv shows ahead than there are behind me, that I have passed the halfway point, and that some long-running things are gradually winding down for me. I was 36 years old when I was invited to join The Stepfathers, and I find it hard to imagine that I’ll still be doing improv shows when I’m 66.

All of which is just my way of encouraging you to attend a Stepfathers show while you can! Life is short! Nothing lasts forever! Make hay while the sun is shining!

In many ways, 2025 has been a deeply rotten year. Thank you for taking an interest in these silly things I’m doing. Doing shows has gotten me through it, and it means a lot that anyone chooses to attend a show or buy a livestream ticket.

We raised almost $5000 for Feeding America with last Saturday's CRpTAC show, and the GLTS Labubu Raffle has added another $1k+, which amounts to over 60,000 meals for people in need. Thank you to all who contributed, or who are about to!

Happy Holidays! Hopefully 2026 will be better!
