Hammy Tammy

A Cleveland native, comic Tammy Pescatelli takes her experiences growing up in a huge Italian family outside of Cleveland and turns them into hilarious and sometimes outrageous jokes. After she made her national debut on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in 2003, Pescatelli has been busy touring and performing. When asked where she finds the inspiration for her jokes, Pescatelli likes to say, “I wake up.” She performs at 7:30 and 10:15 tonight at the Improv and has shows scheduled through Sunday. Tickets are $22. (Lisa Hammond)
