Bobcat Goldthwait tonight at Riot Act Comey

Yes, he’s like that all the time — or at least, the high-pitched comedian Bobcat Goldthwait has been doing standup since he was still in high school in Syracuse, N.Y., in the late ’70s. He starred in several Police Academy films, not to mention Shakes the Clown (which he wrote and directed). He even opened for Nirvana, of all things, on what would be the Seattle band’s final North American tour. Thursday, March 1, at 8:30 p.m., Friday, March 2, at 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., and Saturday, March 3, at 8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Riot Act Comedy Theater, 801 E St. NW. Tickets are $22 to $25. Call 202-697-4900 or visit riotactcomedy.com.
