Lewis Black wears many hats, as a stand-up comedian, actor, TV host, and author. He brings his "Let Them Eat Cake" rant to town on Sunday, May 11. Black has perfected the art of flipping out and cashing in on it, earning himself a Grammy Award along the way. Watch him work himself into frenzy Advertisementafter frenzy, switching gears just shy of a heart attack. It's a precipitous balancing act.

Tickets for his performance at the Auditorium Theatre, 875 East Main Street, cost $43-$60, and are available from ticketmaster.com or by phone at 232-1900. The curtain, and his blood pressure, rises at 8 p.m.
