Hannibal Buress at Vaudeville Café • When Chris Rock calls you the funniest young comic he’s seen in years, people take notice. Hannibal Buress is the object of that praise—and your one chance to see him is Thursday (Aug. 30) at Vaudeville Café. A veteran of the lateshow circuit, Buress has also made prime-time appearances on “Louie” and “30 Rock,” and will appear on upcoming the Adult Swim series “The Eric Andre Show” and “The Nick Show Kroll.” Buress earned his
comic stripes behind the scenes as a staff writer at “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live.” He released his debut album, “My Name is Hannibal” in 2010 and his new Comedy Central special, “Hannibal Buress: Animal Furness” is now available on DVD.
