Three of the talented performers behind MTV’s erstwhile sketch comedy show
The State
and the stunningly hilarious film
Wet Hot American Summer
are coming to town for a live show as the comedy trio Stella. Michael Ian Black (a.k.a. Phil on
Ed
), Michael Showalter and David Wain will bring their mixture of slapstick and smart schtick to the Troc on Friday night. Showalter and Wain co-wrote
Wet Hot
, with Wain directing and Showalter starring in the summer-camp-film sendup along with Black. (Heck, we liked the movie so much, we can even forgive Black for being so über-snarky on VH1’s
I Love the ’80s
special that he made Hal Sparks look sincere.) The sharp-tongued troika will be sure to charm, especially since Showalter can cause a giggle fit simply by giving his audience one of his goofball looks. If you’ve worn your
Wet Hot
DVD down to nothing, you can replace it with the new DVD of Stella shorts at the performance.
Fri., April 11, 9 p.m., $13, with Eugene Mirman and SOLA, Trocadero, 1003 Arch St., 215-922-LIVE.
