You may remember Al Madrigal for his The Daily Show correspondent work. This month Madrigal is back on Comedy Central to debut his very first one-hour stand-up special titled Al Madrigal: Why Is The Rabbit Crying? tonight at 11 p.m. ET/PT.
The special was filmed at our very own Moody Theater and will showcase his comedic wit as he tells the true stories of Coach Frankie, the Cholo soccer dad and many others.
Madrigal has a list of network television credits including appearances on the late night circuit on shows like Conan, The Tonight Show and Chelsea Lately. HBO’s U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen has also named him “Best Stand-Up Comedian”.
To interact will all you fans, Madrigal will have an “Ask a Professional Comedian” session on Tumblr and will also live tweet the Comedy Central premiere from his Twitter account @almadrigal.
An extended and uncensored CD/DVD combo of the Al Madrigal: Why Is The Rabbit Crying? will be available on Tuesday, April 30. This edition will include material that is not seen in the broadcast and bonus features like Madrigal’s field specials from The Daily Show and many other appearances on Comedy Central.
In the meantime, enjoy clips from the special along with an excerpt from the DVD on Comedy Central.
