Picks of the Week


Bret Ernst at Maui Arts and Cultural Center

Though comedian Bret Ernst played collegiate football at Long Island University's C.W. Post and looks like the love child of Joaquin Phoenix and Chris O'Donnell, it's his brand of comedy—more than his pretty-jock looks—that got him cast as a recurring character on Showtime's Weeds, earned him a 30 venues in 30 nights gig for the film Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Show and a job as host of Oxygen's new show Love Games: Bad Girls Need Love Too. He's been featured on BET's One Mic Stand, Showtime's Comics Without Borders and Comedy Central's Premium Blend, plus had a slew of appearances from E!'s Chelsey Lately to CBS's The Late Late Show. Thus, he's been deemed laugh-out-loud worthy enough for Sunset Strip marquee status, and slated as the second-ever headliner of the new series LOL@MACC. If you were thinking, "Bret Ernst? The video game psychopath from Dead Rising 2?" then you should definitely unplug tonight and get out to see Ernst (or, for that matter, our other This Week's Picks; might I also suggest tomorrow's Xbox tournament?). 242-7469, mauiarts.org, breternstlive.com
