Saturday To-Do: Mike Epps



MIKE EPPS
8 p.m., Robinson Center Music Hall. $39.50.

Mike Epps has a flourishing film career. Since his role as “Day-Day” in Ice Cube's “Next Friday,” he's been in more than a dozen movies you've probably never seen, like “Resident Evil: Apocalypse,” “Guess Who” and “The Honeymooners.” Most recently, he appeared in the Martin Lawrence vehicle “Welcome Home, Roscoe Jenkins.” Even with those projects under his belt, Epps probably remains most popular for his stand-up comedy (though if he acts convincingly as Richard Pryor in an upcoming biopic, that might change). A longtime veteran and host of “Def Comedy Jam,” Epps specializes in a goofy, often ribald brand of comedy that's likely to pack out Robinson.
