Great Falls Comedy Club presents Aaron Foster!
Aaron Foster is the clinically depressed former host of an HGTV show you (probably) don’t remember, has acted in numerous films you’ve (hopefully) never seen, and is a standup comic you’ve (sadly) never heard of. That being said, his uniquely hilarious take on dark topics like his own mental health (or lack thereof) has given him a unique voice in the comedy world and he regularly performs in clubs and theaters around the us and Canada.
Foster’s style lies somewhere between the hilarious storytelling of Mike Birbiglia and the raw honesty of Marc Maron. His uniquely dark perspective is how he deals with the madness of, well, life.
He is currently on tour with his show “Mostly Jokes” that was named “best solo show” at the 2025 Tucson Fringe Festival. It is autobiographical standup and storytelling that one reviewer called: “Dark comedy with a huge heart.” Another said: “Subversively funny, laugh out loud, gallows humor.” One more said: “Holy shit.”
“Mostly Jokes” - Growing up with a bipolar father and a schizophrenic brother left Aaron Foster with a combination of survivor's guilt, depression and anxiety that has invalidated his every accomplishment, destroyed his every relationship and invaded his every waking thought. Hilarious!
Join us at the Great Falls Comedy Club, 34 Court St, Auburn, ME, inside Craft Brew Underground, voted "Maine's Best Beer Bar".
Ages 18+, Seating at 7:00pm! Cash bar and food available at 4pm.
Make Laughter a Priority.

Apr 12 Sunday
This American Legion Post #36 Breakfast Buffet has been a tradition spanning many years now. Aside from a few minor unforeseen and unavoidable changes, most everything else remains the same. All who enter the Legion Hall doors on a Breakfast Buffet Sunday, will get a great meal for a fair price/donation, get to see old friends and/or family, or meet someone interesting for the first time. The menu items have satisfied many folks over the years, and I have no doubt that this year will be no different. So come and enjoy the Legion Buffet Breakfast this season, enjoy the food, enjoy the camaraderie, and learn how you (Yes, You) can play a key role in this year's breakfast season - or next year's season. There are a number of very important people who make these breakfasts a success each year, if you have any interest in becoming a volunteer or member of the breakfast crew - ask for the least important person in the mix (Christopher) when you arrive for breakfast. These breakfast buffets take place every other Sunday starting on April 2, 2025.
