About Sam Hampson
Sam Hampson's work-in-progress stand-up show opens the day with jokes, confessions, life advice and at least one short story involving being taken hostage. Hampson openly acknowledges the show is unfinished — as a show and as a man — and isn't entirely sure he believes in ghosts, though he has made room in this show to wonder about it. A genuine and self-aware comedy hour that lets the audience in on the process.
Why see this show?
A refreshingly honest work-in-progress set that doesn't pretend to have everything figured out. Hampson's openness about the unfinished nature of the show is part of its charm — and there may or may not be ghosts.
