About this event

TICKETS $47 General Admission   Café table seating  Member Sale:  Wednesday, June 3 at noon Public Sale:  Friday, June 5 at noon  David Rasche, star of HBO’s Succession and ABC’s Sledge Hammer! and local resident, is pleased to bring his performance Half an Evening with David Rasche to the Indigo Room in a delightful evening of painful memories and personal insults that are tied together with a collection of original songs that he originally wrote himself and were written by him originally. Some of these songs have never before been sung in public, perhaps for good reason. Some are love songs, some comedic, some are bittersweet, some just bitter. He is not above a cheap joke, and nothing is beneath him. Songs will include the bossa nova favorite “Sand Up in My Crack,” the enchanting jazz waltz, “I Wish I Was Married to Your Wife,” the historic actor/prison/chain gang song, “Never Going to Work Again,” and not many more. The songs are musical, and short enough to accommodate the most limited attention span. Someone else will be playing the piano, so don’t worry. This show will be just long enough that exactly when you are thinking, “It’s time to go,” the last song will be finishing and your coat will be waiting for you at the door. “Thank God, David Rasche is finally doing a show,“ someone might have said, maybe. It’s a performance you will be happy to have seen.  David Rasche began his career at Chicago’s famed Second City, where he worked with John Candy, Bill Murray and others. His many TV appearances include Columbo and VEEP, and, most recently, Dying for Sex, with Michelle Williams. He has also appeared in movies, such as In the Loop, directed by Armando Iannucci, who also did VEEP, and About My Father with Robert DeNiro. He has appeared both on Broadway and off.
