From NBC’s “Last Comic Standing,” Chicago comedian Rocky LaPorte is slated to bring his everyman, streetwise style of comedy to a one-night-only appearance at the Firehouse Arts. The star of the Showtime comedy special “The Godfathers of Comedy” delivers laughs in his trademark Brooklyn accent and has become one of the most sought after comedians in the country. Opening for LaPorte is Bay Area favorite and Vallejo native Myles Weber. G. King hosts.

About Myles Weber: Born and raised in Vallejo, California, Myles Weber was runner-up at the Best Of The Bay Area Comedy Competition in 2009, and the winner of the Bay Area All-Star Comedy Competition in 2012.

For this show, the Firehouse Arts Center theater is transforming itself from traditional row-style seating into a cabaret/club setting, complete with tables and chairs for patrons who purchase tickets on the main floor. (Balcony seats will remain theater-style seating.) The Cellar Door, which operates concessions at the Firehouse, will be on hand with small plates, chocolates, wine and other beverages available for purchase.
