Last summer, Paula Poundstone appeared at Bull Run Restaurant, taking the little town of Shirley, Massachusetts by storm.  The crowds kept begging for more, so in response, Bull Run will have her back on Friday, September 21 for two shows, at 7 PM and 10 PM.

Bull Run, a country oasis of good food, drink, and top-notch music is located at 215 Great Road, in the historic country town of Shirley, Massachusetts, about one hour northwest of Boston.

Appearing on stage with a stool, a microphone, and a can of Diet Pepsi, PAULA POUNDSTONE is famous for her razor-sharp wit and spontaneity.  The Boston Globe said, “Poundstone improvises with a crowd like a Jazz musician…swinging in unexpected directions without a plan, without a net.”  Paula is so quick and unassuming that audience members at her live shows often leave complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter and debating whether the random people she talked to were “plants.”

Poundstone’s razor-sharp wit makes her a perfect fit as a regular panelist on NPR’s popular weekly news quiz show, “Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me,” the 2008 winner of the prestigious Peabody Award for broadcasting excellence.  Her first book, “There’s Nothing in This Book That I Meant to Say,” with foreword by Mary Tyler Moore, is out in paperback and also is now available on audio.
