Kym Whitley
COMEDY: KYM WHITLEY One of our favorite resident comedians, Luenell, is taking a break from her Sunday and Monday night gig at Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club along the Linq Promenade. But don’t worry, she’ll be back in March, and in the meantime, actress and stand-up force Kym Whitley will step in. She’s one of those entertainers who seems to have been in more films and TV shows than she hasn’t, going all the way back to Martin, Married ... with Children and Moesha, and more recently in Act Your Age, You People and The Neighborhood. Whitley is also a two-time NAACP Image Award winner for her Two Funny Mamas podcast, co-hosted with Sherri Shepherd. She’s going to have a lot to say, and it’s all going to be funny. 9:30 p.m., & 1/6, $31-$67, Jimmy Kimmel’s Comedy Club, ticketmaster.com. –Brock Radke
