Kate Clinton at the Birchmere

Kate Clinton

A professional — and always out — standup comedian for going on 30 years, Kate Clinton never seems to have a shortage of jokes about her life and current politics. And right about now, gays and lesbians especially could use some laugh therapy. Friday, Nov. 12, at 7:30 p.m. The Birchmere, 3701 Mount Vernon Ave., Alexandria. Tickets are $45. Call 703-549-7500 or visit birchmere.com.
