This past Thursday Ilana Glazer, co-creator of the hit series Broad City, showed up at College Street Music Hall in New Haven for a fun night of vulgar hilarity.
The night of stand-up comedy from the incredibly successful Glazer remained true to who we've gotten to know on Broad City all these years: authentic, relatable, and effortlessly weird. While Glazer has more drive than her role of Ilana Wexler, her boisterous "Yaas Queen"'s and anything-goes comedy (from Diva Cups to Trump) never let us forget who we had come to see.
Her brash realness makes Glazer feel like your friend or the girl down the hall who tells you wild stories at parties, always leaving you knowing that this is a real person you are watching perform, versus the often stilted personas of Hollywood celebrities. She never shies away from important discussions in her show or in her stand-up, from representing the complex relationships of women to the realities of a Trump-run, Kardashian-obsessed America. Glazer came to play, and provided a night of extraordinary fun.
