The Ranting Parents Comedy Tour at Cape Cod Irish Village

If your kids drive you nuts, this show is for you.

The Ranting Parents Comedy Tour is a parent-focused comedy show for adults. It comes to the Cape Cod Irish Village at The Emerald Resort and Conference Center, 35 Scudder Ave, Hyannis MA on Saturday, Oct. 12 at 7:30 p.m.

We love our children, who were put here to torture us. In a night of stand-up and more, four Boston comedians share their best, worst, and weirdest moments as parents. They also share stories and parenting advice that you probably don't want to take.

Join Paul Nardizzi (NBC, Comedy Central, SiriusXM, etc.), Dave Rattigan (SiriusXM, NESN), Andrea Henry (America's Funniest Mom, Last Comic Standing) , and Cape Cod's favorite comedian Jim Ruberti for 90 minutes of great stand-up comedy and more.

The show is suitable for adults.

Tickets are $25, available online at ScampsComedy.com/shows or $30 at the door (cash only) if tickets are available.

Paul Nardizzi came up with the idea for the Ranting Parents Comedy Tour when he was at the doctor's office paying for his son's surgical operation to remove an Xbox controller from his hands. Nardizzi is one of the country's top comedians, with multiple standup appearances on NBC's Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Comedy Central, and Fox Sports' Best Damn Sports Show Period, as well as regional appearances on NESN. A former winner of the Boston Comedy Festival, Nardizzi is in demand for theater shows, corporate functions, colleges, golf tournaments, and fundraisers. His CD has been played on Sirius Satellite Radio and he’s a prolific author of humor books, including 602 Reasons to be Ticked Off and The Sarcastic Sports Trivia Book.

Dave Rattigan is the father of a college art student, so is sure to be taken care of in his twilight years. Known for his dead-pan delivery and quick, dry wit, he's performed in top clubs and theaters, opened for The Beach Boys, Jeff Dunham and Nick DiPaolo, and created the themed stand-up comedy show “How Men Think (Or Do They).” His CD, Dave Rattigan: Thinks He’s Funny, received airplay on Sirius Satellite Radio and on stations around the world. He’s appeared in television commercials and independent film projects; written funny columns for the Boston Globe, Christian Science Monitor and others; and his video clips have run on Nickmom.com and Rooftop Comedy.

Andrea Henry has appeared on Nickelodeon's Search for America's Funniest Mom, Last Comic Standing and The Great Canadian Laugh Off, and has participated in Comedy fests across the country: Limestone, Maine, Boston, Women in Comedy, Chicago Woman's Funny Festival, Rogue Island and Memphis Urban Laughs. She writes joke for Us Weekly Magazine's Fashion Police and is the co-author of Real Kids Jokes by Real Stand-Up Comics. She has also produced and starred in a funny documentary film about entering and losing the Mrs. Massachusetts Beauty Pageant. She has one daughter who is completely awesome, smart and charming. Her daughter also writes all of Andrea's Bios.

Jim Ruberti says the impact of his parenting is most evident in the fact that none of his three sons has the desire to ever reproduce. He's a Boston comedian and actor who has been entertaining people for well over 30 years, starting as a child in the theaters of Cape Cod performing with Broadway actors such as John Raitt or Theordore Bikel, and progressing into roles as an adult at venues like the Barnstable Comedy Club. He hosts his own comedy series at the Cotuit Center for the Arts and has been a comic fundraising auctioneer and event host as well as a stand-up comedian working stages around New England. As a stand-up, he’s shared the stage with Boston headliners such as Lenny Clarke, Steve Sweeney, Paul Nardizzi, Christine Hurley, Jimmy Dunn, Mike McDonald, Dave Rattigan and Steve Bjork.
