Pablo Francisco to Leave Impression(s) on Jr's Last Laugh

Friday, Mar. 23

With one of Comedy Central's most-watched one-hour stand-up specials ("Ouch!") as well as a slew of credits and appearances under his belt, Pablo Francisco is bringing his unique comedic talent to the Erie area for a two-night, four-show engagement. Described as an "off-the-wall, animated character that points out the absurdity in an illogical, pop-culture obsessed world," Francisco — who, as well as performing dead-on impersonations of celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Celine Dion and Keanu Reeves, is an accomplished beat-boxer — got his start in the '90s on MADtv, before bursting into America's living rooms via Comedy Central Presents, a half-hour program that gave stand-up comedians exposure on a nationwide stage.

Now, Francisco will be on the Jr.'s Last Laugh stage with his hilarious, high-energy set full of pointed observations and classic impersonations. — Cara Suppa
