10 Things to Do This Weekend in Orlando July 14 + 15
1. Maria Bamford Live Stand-Up Show - We don't recommend stand up on this newsletter but this lady is worth breaking our rule for. Judd Apatow told the L.A. Times he thinks she is "hysterically funny." Bamford's unique comedic style has drawn praise and criticism. She is best known for her portrayal of her dysfunctional family and self-deprecating humor comedy involving jokes about depression and anxiety. Her comedy style is surreal. Zach Freeman of the Chicago Tribune has noted her content and comedic style as "comically erratic" with "seemingly unrelated tangents and constantly varying vocal inflections" Maria Bamford's stand up show is Saturday at 7pm at The Plaza Live.
