Mike Birbiglia's "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend" at Clowes Memorial Hall

To say that Birbiglia is one of the nation's best rising young stand-ups is somewhat of an understatement at this point. With performances on the Late Show with David Letterman, and Jimmy Kimmel Live, a book that debuted on the New York Times Best Sellers List and a hit off-Broadway show, Birbiglia is "as honest as any Richard Pryor confession, and as engaging and inclusive as an old Bill Cosby record." (The Boston Globe) His new show, the Lucille Lortel nominated Off-Broadway hit "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend," shares a lifetime of romantic blunders and miscues that most adults would spend a lifetime trying to forget. On this painfully honest journey, Birbiglia struggles to find reason in an area where it may be impossible to find -- love.
