Iron Horse Comedy with Todd Barry, Ken Reid Friday, December 11th at 7PM

Todd Barry was Entertainment Weekly's 2003 "It Standup" selection on their "It List”. You may have seen him as Mickey Rourke's no-so-nice boss in The Wrestler; as the annoying bongo player on Flight of the Conchords. He's appeared on Letterman, Conan O'Brien, Carson Daly, Comedy Central's Friar's Roast of Chevy Chase, "Space Ghost Coast To Coast", and in two of his own "Comedy Central Presents" special. His acting credits include "The Larry Sanders Show", "Sex And The City", "Spin City", "Chappelle's Show", "Road Trip" and "Pootie Tang". He's done cartoon voice work on "Dr. Katz", "Aqua Teen Hunger Force", "Home Movies", and "Hey Monie". Todd has even opened for Yo La Tengo, The Shins, They Might Be Giants, and Luna. At the US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, he won the Jury Award for Best Stand Up Comic.

Opener Ken Reid, a regular on the Boston comedy circuit, takes the slice-of-life approach that shows the ironic and funny side of life at every angle. His pessimistic outlook mirrors that of the late Bill Hicks.
