Michael Henry and Tim Murray: Problems Solved
About This Event
Michael Henry and Tim Murray appear at Union Hall for Problems Solved in a two‑person lineup. Murray has recounted an early‑90s Red Sox game when President Bush and Barbara Bush sat nearby; that concrete, observational detail is characteristic of his material and helps shape the evening.
About Problems Solved
At Union Hall, Michael Henry and Tim Murray share the stage for *Problems Solved*, a two-person comedy set built around conversation, stories, and quick pivots. Murray’s material often turns on specific, lived detail, like a remembered early-’90s Red Sox game with George and Barbara Bush seated nearby, and that observational approach shapes the night’s tone. There is no noted NYC premiere history attached to this run, but the pairing fits Brooklyn’s long tradition of small-room comedy as a place where persona is tested in real time. The sharpest moments come when the anecdotes stay concrete and let the audience do the math.
About the Artist
Tim Murray
Sometime in 1993 – 1994, my friend Tom Gibbons secured two tickets to a Red Sox game behind the visitors’ dugout. The Red Sox were playing the Texas Rangers. Shortly after the game started several large Boston Police Department motorcycle officers, followed by several plain clothed officers appeared around our seats.
