It's that time of the year for MIT's Fall Festival Comedy Show!

We are excited to announce this year's comedians, Michael Ian Black and Hannibal Buress!

Show will take place Friday, October 5th at 8pm in Kresge Auditorium.

Michael Ian Black began his career soon after graduating from NYU. Since then he has become a multi-talented comedian, actor, director, writer and filmmaker. Some of his notable works have been his role as a lead commentator of VH1's "I love the..." series, starring in NBC's tv drama "Ed", and writing the original screenplay of the 2008 comedy, "Run, Fatboy, Run" starring Simon Pegg and Thandie Newton.

Hannibal Buress is a "bright, young talent" hailing from Chicago. Buress's trademark style of storytelling with a laid back and peculiar persona has certainly gained him popularity among his peers. He's appeared on "The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson" and Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham." Hannibal Buress has been named "Funniest Person in Chicago" by Timeout Magazine, and has been listed as one of the top 10 "Comics to Watch" by New York Magazine.
