Actor, comedian, and podcast host Michael Rapaport has announced an exclusive one-night comedy show in Connecticut next month. The outspoken performer will take the stage at the Hartford Funnybone in Manchester on May 15.
Rapaport shared the news with his followers through an Instagram post featuring a promotional image of himself in an astronaut costume with the announcement details. “CONNECTICUT!!! One Night One Show in #connecticut,” the post reads. “I’m at the @hartfordfunnybone in Manchester, CT MAY 15th. Come see me live MAY 15.”
For those unfamiliar with Rapaport, the New York native has built a diverse career spanning film, television, comedy, and podcasting over the past three decades. Rapaport began his career in the early 1990s and has appeared in over 60 films, including notable roles in “True Romance,” “Higher Learning,” “Cop Land,” and “The 6th Day.”
Television audiences may recognize him from his recurring roles on shows like “Friends,” “Prison Break,” “My Name is Earl,” “The War at Home,” and more recently, “Atypical” on Netflix. Beyond acting, Rapaport has directed the documentary “Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest.”
In recent years, Rapaport has gained additional popularity through his podcast, “I Am Rapaport,” where he shares unfiltered opinions on current events, sports, entertainment, and politics. He frequently promotes the podcast on his social media platforms, encouraging fans to listen to his extended takes on topics he discusses in shorter form on Instagram.
While the specific content of his upcoming Connecticut performance hasn’t been detailed, attendees can likely expect Rapaport’s trademark blend of humor, social commentary, and unfiltered opinions that have become his calling card across social media and his podcast.
Given his recent focus on political and social issues in his online presence, it’s possible these topics may feature in his stand-up material alongside traditional comedy fare. Rapaport is known for his energetic delivery style and signature New York sensibility that often resonates with live audiences.
The one-night-only performance will take place at the Hartford Funnybone in Manchester, Connecticut on Wednesday, May 15. The venue, part of the national Funnybone comedy club chain, regularly features both established comedians and rising stars in the comedy world.
Fans interested in attending Rapaport’s show should check the Hartford Funnybone website for ticket information and showtime details. As emphasized in his announcement with the repeated date, this will be a single-night engagement, making it an exclusive opportunity for Connecticut comedy fans to see him perform live.
This Connecticut show appears to be part of Rapaport’s ongoing comedy tour schedule, where he performs at venues across the country in addition to his professional commitments in acting and podcasting.
