interview/review in the Pacific Sun Newspaper
Friday, September 18
The Polly Klaas Theater - 417 Western Ave, Petaluma, CA 94952
Doors @ 700pm | Show at 730pm

First performed at the Hollywood Fringe Festival to reviews such as:
"Subversively funny, laugh out loud gallows humor."
"Some shows claim to be dark humor, but this was the absolute epitome of it."
"You will fall in love with a man who would rather you not."
"A laugh every 20 seconds."
It’s mostly jokes… mostly. Growing up with a bipolar father and a schizophrenic older brother left Aaron Foster with a combination of survivor’s guilt, depression and anxiety that has invalidated his every accomplishment, destroyed his every relationship and invaded his every waking thought. A comedy!

Foster is the former host of HGTV’s FreeStyle and has performed stand up at The Comedy Store, The IMPROV, The Ice House, The Ha Ha, The Comedy Chateau, Flappers as well runs his own usually sold out theater shows in Reno, Nevada. A few of his main influences are Mike Birbiglia, Maria Bamford, Gary Gulman, Marc Maron, Taylor Tomlinson and Neal Brennan. Do with that information what you will.
