Actually, don’t be alarmed.
This is just a somewhat hyperbolic reminder that our standup comic daughter Emilia is performing her first hour-long special at iO West in Hollywood less than 6 weeks from today.

Since returning to her hometown of Los Angeles after her college graduation, my daughter Emilia has been honing her craft as a standup comedian.
For the past couple years, Emilia has been earning laughs and developing her unique material in performance at comedy clubs in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York and San Francisco.
Among the many clubs she’s played in Los Angeles are the famous Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip, The Formosa in West Hollywood, Flappers in Burbank, The Federal Bar in North Hollywood and The Leche Lounge in Silver Lake.
Now, Emilia is adding the Main Stage at iO West to that list.
If you’ve been among the many wonderful folks who’ve come out to see her club gigs, you’ve Emilia do 7-minute sets – 12 minutes or so when she’s headlining the show.
This time she’s doing her first full-length show: an hour of offbeat, satiric and highly original standup comedy on July 8, 9 and 10.
All shows are at 7:00 PM at iO West, located at 6366 Hollywood Boulevard.
Tickets are $10.

Our very funny daughter Emilia is just beginning her second year in the challenging world of standup comedy. My wife and I have always been sketch comedians, getting our laughs onstage behind the façade of a series of characters. But not Emilia…
Emilia goes it alone, as herself, microphone in hand – with nothing but her own wit to rely on. She’s a brave girl. And she’s getting pretty damn good at this standup thing.
Emilia’s first year behind the mike has been busy. In Southern California, she’s played all three rooms at The Comedy Store, The Formosa Café, Leche Lounge, Café HaHa, and Flappers in Burbank, among others. She’s also played several clubs in Chicago and NYC.
If you haven’t seen her perform yet, you’ll have lots of opportunities to catch her act in the Los Angeles area this month.
On April 2, she’ll be hosting an evening of standup comedy at the Leche Lounge, upstairs at Café Malo in Silver Lake.
The rest of her gigs are listed on the poster below.
In fact – here’s a good idea: print the poster and tape it to your refrigerator. That way, you’ll have Emilia’s smiling face to look at as you get milk for your cereal – and you’ll be reminded of when and where she’s playing this month. See you there!

You can catch my very funny daughter Emilia’s act this Sunday night at the legendary Comedy Store in Hollywood – and she’s performing new material!
Emilia’s starting to make a name for herself in the standup scene, and this gig is an important set-up to the great punchline of her budding career.
So, if you’ve caught her wild, wonderful takes on airplanes, miracles, the World Cup, Animal Planet, and why she can never watch “The Lion King” again without a shudder of horror – then you’ll want to hear what Emilia’s gonna say next!
Emilia will be in the Main Room at Hollywood’s legendary Comedy Store on Sunday, August 24th at 8:25 PM (Doors open at 8:00).

Hope to see you there. I’ll be the guy sitting in the house with two Chardonnays and a big, happy grin.
