Robert Kelly performs at Pittsburgh Improv tomorrow night.

In 2014, Kelly's hour-long standup special Robert Kelly: Live at the Village Underground premiered on Comedy Central (and it is currently on Netflix). Kelly is known for his introspective, self-deprecating and unapologetic humor both on stage and sometimes onscreen. His presence as a television performer has increased in recent years, with recurring roles on two FX programs — as Louis C.K.’s deadbeat brother on three seasons of Louie, and as Bam Bam on Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll.

He’s also appeared in Amy Schumer projects like Trainwreck and Inside Amy Schumer. Kelly even gave a lengthy, personal interview a month ago on Marc Maron’s popular WTF podcast. Since 2010, Kelly has hosted his own comedy podcast, You Know What Dude!.

Tickets for this 21-and-over performance of Kelly’s True Story Tour are $15. The performance starts at 8 p.m.

The Improv is located at 166 E. Bridge St., in West Homestead.
