Story-based comic Sinbad prides himself on finding the funny even in life’s toughest situations. His show is interactive, but you might not want to be part of his routine. Sinbad flips the script on his audience members and turns their troubles into comedic gold for everyone else’s enjoyment. The comic has also seen some screen time though it’s nothing to brag about. He was the star of the holiday flop Jingle All the Way and has acted in several pilots. It’s safe to say his forte is stand-up, but you can judge for yourself tonight at 8 at Hilarities, where he has shows scheduled through Saturday. Tickets are $30 to $35. (Brittany Rees)
