Smart bets: Jarrod Harris and Lace Larrabee

Funny Business at The Grey Eagle regularly brings nationally recognized comedians, like Jarrod Harris and Lace Larrabee, to Asheville. Onstage Harris, who formerly lent his voice to the comedy web series “Action Figure Therapy,” embraces his moody, irreverent side. Meanwhile, former beauty queen and bartender Larrabee makes light of her varied history. “I love performing here because Asheville has some of the best comedy audiences in the country,” says Larrabee of the duo’s upcoming return to the city. “They are always smart, open and down to party — even if my definition of partying involves tasting 250 local beers in a night and theirs involves making artisanal tambourines out of their own hair.” The comedians will perform Saturday, May 13, at 7 p.m. at The Grey Eagle. $12/$14. thegreyeagle.com.
