The Daily Show Live
Indecision Tour 2012
Friday, 30 Nov 2012 at 8:00 pm – Stephens Auditorium - doors open at 7 p.m.
It's a hilarious evening of comedy, politics and the news, featuring two correspondents and a writer-producer from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. John Hodgman, Al Madrigal and J. R. Havlan offer side-splitting post-election coverage as well as an inside look at how the show is produced, from comedy and the news to the creative process. They'll even take questions from the audience. John Hodgman is the show's resident expert and was the bumbling PC in Apple's long-running "I'm a Mac; I'm a PC" ad campaign. J.R. Havlan is an Emmy Award-winning writer for The Daily Show, and Al Madrigal co-starred in the sitcom Gary Unmarried with Jay Mohr, and has appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel and Craig Ferguson shows. The Daily Show Indecision 2012 Tour is sponsored by Comedy Central and The Daily Show.No tickets required.
J. R. Havlan is an Emmy-Award winning writer for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He was previously a stand up comic, including a stint doing crowd warm-up and writing for Bill Mahrer's Politically Incorrect. J.R. was also a writer for America: The Book.
