Tonight Prepare to be Charmed by Charlyne Yi

Posted by on Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 12:58 PM

(Vera) If the name doesn't ring a bell, surely you'd recognize Charlyne Yi when you saw her. She's an actress who's had bit parts in Knocked Up and 30 Rock, and is a regular on House, and, more notably, she wrote and starred in the film Paper Heart, costarring Michael Cera. But she's also a comedian! Yi uses songs and storytelling to make the crowds laugh, and it comes off so effortlessly and charming that you forget you're at a "show" and feel like you're hanging out with a new friend who just happens to be really entertaining. She has both original material and some covers up her sleeve, and if the recent postings on her YouTube channel are any indication of what she'll perform on tour, we'll get covers of "Be My Baby" and "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and she'll probably forget some of the words.
