Last night I was a judge for the San Francisco Comedy Competition at Biscuit and Blues in the City. It brought back fond memories of my series Comedy Tonight (1981-1991). Here’s a photo of me and Jackie Flynn who hosted the Competition last night. He’s very funny and you might have seen him on the comedy series, Loudermilk on Netflix.

This Weekend, You’re Invited — to Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro

Strap yourself in for the wildest wedding of the season as Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro streams for free this weekend on https://sfopera.com/streaming

Meet Figaro, faithful valet to a very, very unfaithful man — as Figaro is about to find out when he discovers his employer is planning to bed his fiancée right on his wedding night!

Patrick Summers conducts a glittering cast, including Philippe Sly as the quick-witted Figaro, Lisette Oropesa as his fiancée Susanna, Nadine Sierra as the jilted Countess Almaviva, and Luca Pisaroni as the lustful Count Almaviva, in a production the San Francisco Chronicle describes as calls “a perfect union” of theatrics and music.

Don’t miss one of the funniest romantic comedies of all time: Streaming starts this Saturday, October 24, at 10am Pacific, but the wedding party ends midnight the next day. Tune in! Directed for the screen, captured live by Frank Zamacona.
