May 16th: Christopher Titus, actor and comedian - Christopher Titus jokes about things most comics would find impossible to make funny. Custody battles, insanity, family suicides, heart attacks, and fist fighting his father are all topics to be confronted, not hidden from. “I think our collective psychosis is hilarious. With the world moving as fast as it is, if we weren’t dysfunctional, we couldn’t function,” says Titus. Christopher is that most rare of comics in that his material is edgy and pushes the envelope, but still accessible and meaningful to the common audience.  Titus is also the founder of The Insight Project, a non-profit organization that raises money for children who have suffered abusive backgrounds.  For more information on Christopher Titus, visit www.christophertitus.com.
