There’s a new movie coming out this weekend and it’s set in Detroit. “Stealing Jokes” centers on a comedian and his friends who, after setting out on a comedy tour, get bilked out of their promised fees on the first night. They decide to rob the venue, leading to a heist involving the underworld of the comedy scene.
The film stars Michael Rapaport, Jeff Dye, Dustin Ybarra and Haha Davis. Director, Mike Young joined “Live in the D” to give viewers a first look at the film before it streams everywhere Friday, November 1st.
Young said this movie is a tribute to all comedians who may have, in their career, been slighted or didn’t get paid what they deserved.
In collaboration with the movie, Young and several cast members are bringing their talents to a live audience with “The Rock Comedy Tour” a cross-country tour visiting twenty-five cities and set to run through December 18th.
