Anthony Rodia

SPECIAL EVENT

In a very short time, Anthony gained over 900,000 social media followers and his YouTube videos have amassed over 22 million views. Rodia’s comedy pulls from his real life and razor-sharp observations on marriage, parenthood, road rage, and everything else worthy of a social media rant.

With the onset of quarantine, Anthony made the most of a captive audience, delivering a staggering 86 weekly videos. “ROAD RAGE WEDNESDAY” became a fan favorite, but his Uncle Vinny and Zia Lucia characters transformed into a phenomenon. They are the crazy uncle and aunt you love but can’t be out in public with, who speak their minds (whether you asked for it or not).

Rodia also host the weekly podcast, Little Bit of Laughs on Podcast One. Get to know the comedian behind your favorite viral videos and stand-up comedy alongside his co-host and radio legend Goumba Johnny. Join Anthony and Goumba as they get into hot topics, rants, pranks, and listener's questions and stories.

Pat McGann

Pat McGann is quickly rising as one of the sharpest stand-ups in the comedy world. A relative latecomer to the scene, Pat began stand up at the age of 31 after realizing he was not very good at selling packaging. He hustled his way to become the house emcee at Zanies Chicago, where he distinguished himself as especially adept at working the crowd. A husband and father of 3 young children, Pat’s appeal stems from his quick wit & relatable take on family life & marriage. In 2017, McGann began touring as the opening act for Sebastian Maniscalco, moving with him from clubs, to theater, and to arenas, including 4 sold out shows at Madison Square Garden. McGann’s relatively short, but impressive resume, includes performances on The Late Show with David Letterman, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Montreal’s famed Just For Laughs Festival, Gilda’s LaughFest, The Great American Comedy Festival and the Nashville Comedy Fest. McGann still calls Chicago home.

Admission is 21 and Over Unless Accompanied By Parent Before 9PM - 21 and Older Only After 9PM.

TGR Presents: Esperanto

On Wednesday, July 27, join TGR at the Arlington Drafthouse for the one-night only premiere of their new mountain bike film, Esperanto. Get hyped to ride with their new film on the big screen plus prize giveaways from their partners at Specialized, Dometic, Tincup, Ride Concepts and more before the show. This is the summer film event you do not want to miss!

About the film: TGR’s latest action-packed mountain bike film mixes the rock stars of the sport with a cast of unknown and up-and-coming heroes. Esperanto explores how we share our dreams through a universal two-wheeled language no matter what our native tongue may be. The sacred ritual of the ride might sound different all across the world – whether it’s a full-face getting pulled down to drop into a big jump line or wheeling a beat-up bike out of a mud hut to pedal to school – but it’s a universal process no matter what language we speak. As we view this visual tapestry featuring next-level riding in unusual locations all across the globe, we hear a voice speaking a language we’ve never heard: There are more than 7,000 languages spoken on Earth. In 1887 a Polish-Jewish doctor named L.L. Zamenhof created a new one, a universal second language based on a combination of existing widely-spoken European languages. Its goal is to help bring people together from different ideologies, beliefs, and nations and ultimately to help end war. The language was called Esperanto. Translated into English it means ‘one who hopes.’ Today, Esperanto might remain elusive, but the dream of a shared language Spoken Worldwide still flourishes. You just have to know where to look for it.

Carlos Ballarta

SPECIAL EVENT

PLEASE NOTE: This show will be performed entirely in Spanish.

A standup comedian and actor, born in Mexico City in 1990. I grew up in Chicoloapan, a town in the metropolitan area, and I studied acting. My artistic career began as a voice actor and the first time I performed at an Open Mic was in 2012. Then I started wearing glasses for fear of looking at the audience in the eye, this has become my signature look.

In 2014 I became a fan favorite with my debut on Comedy Central Latin America. Since then, I have recorded two Netflix Specials - which I invite you to watch – and have toured Mexico, Latin America, the United States and Europe. I also appeared in many films and TV shows as an actor, comedian, and voice actor. This has positioned me as one of the most recognized faces in the growing Latin American Stand-Up scene.

As a father of two, I am an advocate for diversity in the Mexican entertainment industry. My two Stand Up specials on Netflix, "El Amor es de Putos" and "Furia Ñera", and “Dios Está Muerto" are both testaments to my beliefs."

PLEASE NOTE: This show will be performed entirely in Spanish.
