Paula Poundstone returns to The Ellen for the fourth time! One of the Theatre’s favorite guest performers, Paula has been a frequent guest on The Late Show with David Letterman, Prairie Home Companion, and is a weekly regular on NPR’s Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me. She exhibits razor-sharp humor with a dry delivery, connecting with the crowd on any subject at the drop of a hat.

"They allow me to say whatever I want. The panelists are unscripted, so it's perfect for me. I feel like I'm a batter in a batting cage. I get lobbed topics. Sometimes I just watch them go by, but every now and then I get a piece of one. If the others didn't cheat, it would be an almost perfect work experience.”
