Paul Provenza: Satirista and Green Room-er
You probably know Paul Provenza from his impressive stand-up career or as the co-creator of the (dirty, dirty, dirty) documentary, The Aristocrats. We know him as a great guy and the talented co-author (with photographer Dan Dion) of a new book, Satiristas: Comedians, Contrarians, Raconteurs & Vulgarians.
The multi-talented Mr. Provenza is adding yet another line to his resume: television host. The Green Room with Paul Provenza offers comedy fans the chance to see the world’s greatest comedians in a roundtable setting, speaking off-the-cuff and uncensored in front of a studio audience. No rules, no agenda, no censors…just some of the funniest people around, riffing on and ripping each other apart.
If that sounds like your kind of fun, catch the series premier on Thursday, June 10th at 10:30 PM (Eastern/Pacific) on Showtime.
Bon Jovi, it’s their life
