Matthew Broussard at Mic Drop Comedy Detroit

If your ideal late-night entertainment involves a joke that makes you think for half a second before you laugh, Matthew Broussard belongs on your list. The comedian's mathematics background and taste for wordplay make an unusual combination, but the destination is stand-up, not a lecture.

His background is an intriguing introduction, but his comedy work supplies the next reason to come. Broussard’s credits include Conan, The Tonight Show and a Comedy Central Half Hour. If you first saw him in one of those settings, a live performance gives that interest a destination and the opportunity to see him as the headliner.

He also created Monday Punday, a webcomic and puzzle project that offers another glimpse of his creative instincts. For fans who enjoy wordplay, that connection can make choosing a comedian especially appealing. Follow the artist whose work makes you curious, with room to discover the stand-up on its own terms instead of anticipating a particular puzzle or routine.

Let the late slot belong to a comic who enjoys a clever turn. Check Matthew Broussard's 9:30 tickets and bring another fan of sharp humor.
