Kristen Schaal unleashes her unique point of view and unconventional delivery upon San Francisco in the world premiere of her first original one-hour stand-up special, Kristen Schaal: Live at the Fillmore, debuting on Comedy Central on Monday, April 1 at midnight ET/PT. One of Rolling Stone's "50 Funniest People Now," Schaal is not afraid to go blue in front of a live audience at the historic San Francisco venue. She will talk about taints. She will perform her magician's assistant audition and she will share personal insights and stories, all adding up to a hilarious hour of comedy.

Leading up to the on-air premiere, Comedy Central's Stand-Up Web site will feature preview clips from the special. An extended and uncensored DVD of Kristen Schaal: Live at the Fillmore will be released on April 2, featuring material not seen in the broadcast, including Comedy Central Presents: Kristen Schaal, Kristen's performance on John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show, and her favorite appearances on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart as the Women's Issues Contributor.
