SCOTT FREE

As a Kid in the Hall, Scott Thompson (pictured) has played everything from a surf cop to an effeminate socialite. But in his one-man show “Scottastrophe,” Thompson simply plays himself. “I had a story I needed to tell,” he explains. From getting on the wrong end of a firebombing to terrorizing Canadian literary society with a makeshift sex toy, Thompson surveys a rocky last few years wondering what all the drama’s been about. 8 p.m. Ends Feb 29. Steve Allen Theater, Los Feliz. $10. www.steveallentheater.com
