Here is more information in the show from Noise for the Needy’s website:
Naked & Bloody regularly sells out at Los Angeles’ Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, and Noise for the Needy is thrilled to announce that this will be the Seattle premiere of Rob Delaney’s funny and successful solo show.
About the show: Eight years ago, Rob Delaney was in jail in a wheelchair, naked and covered in his own blood. He had done a terrible thing. Now he’s an upstanding gentleman and one of your favorite comedians. How did this happen? Let Rob tell you how!
Rob Delaney was born in Boston, went to college in New York City and lives in Los Angeles, where he’s a fixture at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater and the Hollywood Improv. He travels the country doing standup, and writes for and appears on various television shows. He writes for VICE magazine and since it’s the future, he’s comfortable telling you he won “Funniest Comic on Twitter” at the 2010 Aspen Comedy Festival.
Rylee Newton has appeared on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and at the US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colorado. After living in Los Angeles for ten years, she returned to her hometown of Portland, Oregon, and has recently moved to Seattle, where she continues to perform.
