We're thrilled to announce that comedian Neil Hamburger is coming to The Mill on Saturday, March 16 at 8 p.m. He'll be joined by *Major Entertainer* Mike H. A brilliantly awful persona of an old-school, C-list funnyman — the kind with an ill-fitting tuxedo and an enormous, greasy comb-over — on a very bad night. Neil Hamburger toys with an audience’s expectations (and patience), and indeed his act is a kind of rude commentary on stand-up comedy altogether.” - The New York Times Tickets are on sale now and available at: bit.ly/NeilHam
