08:00 PM » Peyvand Khorsandi presents GENERATION SKIP: Stand-up Comedy

Saturday, April 14, 8:00 PM

Peyvand Khorsandi presents GENERATION SKIP: Stand-up Comedy

London-based comic Peyvand Khorsandi is back in the Bay Area for one night only. Five years after his hilarious debut at Julia Morgan Center for the Arts, Peyvand will be unpacking his wit with fresh cuts on being an Iranian in the West, riffing on nose jobs, metrosexuality in Tehran and his grandmother's love for Big Macs.

Peyvand, a regular contributor to iranian.com and the blogosphere, delivers cultural and political commentary with biting humor. If you're bringing your bored Iranian uncle to the show, make sure he understands some English. (In English with some Farsi.)

EXTRA: The evening will start with a special musical guest who will especially wow fans of Iranian underground rock music.

Advance and Door Ticket Prices: Adult/Senior $25, Children $15, Student $20
CBON Ticket Line 925.798.1300
