Saint Louis Art Museum is adding stand-up comedy to Free Fridays! We’re excited to announce Gallery Laughs, a one of a kind, four-part stand-up comedy series produced by Mid Coast Media - featuring nationally touring comedians Mia Jackson, Jonathan Kite, Ian Edwards and Kym Whitley - supported by some of St. Louis’ favorite local performers.
🎤 May 30 - Jonathan Kite feat. Larry Greene
Jonathan Kite may be best known for his starring role as the lovable Ukrainian cook “Oleg” in CBS’ long-running, award-winning comedy series 2 Broke Girls. Kite can currently be seen opposite Jamie Foxx in the Netflix comedy series Dad Stop Embarrassing Me and the Netflix feature The Curse of Bridge Hollow. As a stand-up comedian, Kite has performed nationwide and internationally to sold-out audiences. He is an expert impressionist, boasting over 250 celebrity and character impressions that include Donald Trump, Vince Vaughn, Tom Hanks and Anthony Bordaine, as well as every accent that you can name. Follow him on Instagram at @jonathankite.
