Paula Poundstone
Saturday March 25, 2006 from 8:00pm - 10:00pm
Lincoln Theater
100 California Drive
Yountville, California Get Directions
Appearing on stage with a stool, a microphone, and a can of Diet Pepsi, Paula Poundstone?s ability to create humor on the spot is legendary. There?s a wonderful synergy to each of her one-of-a-kind, two-hour shows. She improvises with a crowd like a jazz musician. She?ll find an audience member who sells grass seed to golf courses in part of the state of Maryland and wonder, ?In such a small territory, even if the grass seed were any good at all, how could you possibly be working to your full potential?? Then she swings in another unexpected direction without a plan, without a net.

Known for her honesty, and an off-kilter view of the world, Paula is currently delighting crowds across the country on her hilarious national tour, ?The Big Picture.? Never one to be defined by the usual gender-biased topics of relationships, diets, men or sex, Paula nimbly mixes in everything from how the shameful deterioration of the broadcast news industry threatens our democracy, and arguing over a parking space at the museum of tolerance, to recycling her newspaper with the cover story on the oil spill, her near-death experience with cinnamon, and the frustration of living in a house full of pencils with no erasers. ?How can an eraser that small possibly eradicate all of the mistakes one could make with all of that lead?? She even handles politics without provoking the pall of disapproval less artful comics have received.
