Comedian and actor Jimmy Shubert (LAST COMIC STANDING, 2 BROKE GIRLS, KING OF QUEENS) will showcase his trademark pop culture humor on January 29 and 30 at Flappers Comedy Club and Restaurant in Burbank, including a live taping of his new comedy special on January 30. Show tickets are $20, and are available at www.flapperscomedy.com.

Shubert fans will adore witnessing the behind-the-scenes excitement of his new live TV taping for Netflix. Recording on Saturday, January 30 at 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM, the audience will be able to participate in comedy history in the making.

Shubert combines the outlook of a modern-day Archie Bunker with an utterly real world sensibility to create signature observations about Yelp, airport security, relationships, and the dumbing down of America. His television credits include "Monk," "Back in the Game," " 2 Broke Girls," "Just Shoot Me," "Heist," "The Loop," "ER," "Reno 911," "Rude Awakenings," "Angel," "Lucky," and "New Car Smell."

An accomplished actor and comedian, Shubert made the top 10 of the 2014 season of "Last Comic Standing." Headlining top comedy clubs, casinos, and theaters nationwide, his one-hour standup special has won him award recognition. His full-contact comedy has led him to headlining the Comedy Store in Hollywood, the Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas, as well as appearing for five years on "King of Queens," and on several episodes of "Entourage."

It was Shubert's scene-stealing performance as the lollipop-sucking strip club bouncer in GO, directed by Doug Liman (SWINGERS), that jumpstarted his film career in 1999. Since that auspicious debut, he has landed roles in such films such as THE ITALIAN JOB starring Charlize Theron, Ed Norton, and Mark Walhberg, and MR & MRS SMITH, starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
