Pat McGann takes the stage May 17 at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet.
McGann has been to the Rialto before — he saw Jerry Seinfeld there when he was younger — but this time he’ll be the one onstage making people laugh.“That place is pretty well-known. It’s beautiful,” he said.
“People seem to relate to raising kids and all that madness,” he said. “Playing sports and managing their and the different pace of the world. This seems to resonate wherever you are.”“My son’s playing hockey. He had a tryout; he was 8 years old. The tryout was, ‘can you come up with $2,500?,’” he deadpanned. “They’re playing games out of state, which is crazy.”“That’s what I’ve been doing — talking about my life and my experiences,” he said.
Standup is more than just telling memorized jokes; it’s actual performing for people onstage, he said. “He saw something in me and gave me this opportunity that kind of changed everything for me,” he said. “Hosting there, I got so much stage time. I feel like I made up for the late start. I got to catch up to a lot of comics. Zanies is open seven nights a week and I was only off on Monday nights.
