Roz Chast & Patricia Marx on Love

January 23, 2020 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm PST

$15 – $35

After last April’s sold-out show, Roz Chast and Patricia Marx return to Kepler’s for You Can Only Yell at Me for One Thing at a Time: Rules for Couples.

Much beloved, utterly genius contributors to The New Yorker for decades, the inimitable cartoonist Roz Chast and wry humorist Patricia Marx have joined forces again! This time, to solve every love and relationship problem that has ever existed. You’re welcome!

Everyone’s heard the old, standard advice for a healthy relationship… we wouldn’t dare bore you with those. Instead, Chast and Marx will make you laugh, remind you why your relationship is better than everyone else’s, and solve all your problems with advice like the following: “If you must breathe, don’t breathe so loudly” or “It is easier to stay inside and wait for the snow to melt than to fight about who should shovel.”

Join these two remarkable women for a laugh out loud evening and get your copy of You Can Only Yell At Me for One Thing at a Time personalized for a Valentine’s or Anniversary gift, or for your own personal collection (“hands off, Harry!”).

ROZ CHAST has been a contributor to The New Yorker since 1978, and is the only cartoonist we’ve heard of with multiple honorary doctorates, in addition to several books and a boatload of awards under her belt. In 2012, she was awarded the NYC Literary Honor in Humor. She has a knack for revealing the entire feeling of a situation in just one sentence, as evidenced by her critically acclaimed 2014 memoir, Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant?

PATRICIA MARX was the first woman humorist ever elected to The Harvard Lampoon, a writer for Saturday Night Live and Rugrats, and a contributor of creative, unusual ephemera to The New Yorker since 1989. She has authored multiple books, taught at university, given a TEDxTalk, won some awards, and only occasionally feared for her own wits. She was the recipient of the 2015 Guggenheim Fellowship.
