Description
Richard Pryor contained multitudes, each fully inhabited character funnier and more insightful than the last, so it’s no wonder when he took the stage at The Comedy Store in Hollywood in 1973, it’d be a full 15 minutes before he spoke to the adoring audience as himself. No, he needed to start where he started, on the streetcorner, with all the wit, wisdom, and general jackassery of ‘Wino & Junkie’. Throughout a set full of hard jokes and detailed character sketches (including the men of the Saturday night police lineup in his hometown of Preoria, Illinois-the first and riskiest stage he knew), the audience has the chance to get caught up in the silliness so inherent to Pryor while never losing sight of the issues America had yet to face (and hasn’t still).
