Nick Offerman

Humorist Nick Offerman became a comedic star when his role in the TV sitcom Parks and Recreation catapulted him into the comedic canon. Offerman brought some real personality to the character of Ron Swanson, the ultra manly head of a city's parks and recreation department. For tonight's performance at Connor Palace, Offerman ­— a woodworker in real life — will present his "saw-dusty musings on survival in the wild, living with enthusiasm, and most importantly, the cultivation of fulsome body hair." The show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $39.50 to $59.50. (Niesel)
