Philadelphia boasts an incredible line of comedians, from Bill Cosby and David Brenner to Bob Saget and Todd Glass. North Philly’s own Kevin Hart, aka the “Grown Little Man,” more than held his own in 2012 in the films Think Like a Man and The Five-Year Engagement and on his hysterical, best-selling standup DVDs, 2010’s Seriously Funny and last year’s Laugh at My Pain, the latter of which, oddly, won him a BET Award for Best Actor. (Um, he was being his hilarious self, geniuses.) Hart’s matched wits with Robert De Niro, Chris Rock and Steve Carell, and his keep-it-real, down-home humor topics run the gamut from black parenting skills to ebonic gangsterism. You can certainly bet that when he comes home to the Wells Fargo Center, he will “go there” in the best tradition of standup comedy: riffing like a jazz musician on the sweet flypaper of life. The thing that’s hurting won’t be your feelings, but your stomach from laughing. —Eugene Holley, Jr.
