“You can tell I’m from Massachusetts because I look like every cop’s daughter,” says Maggie Crane as she starts her set, painting a vivid image of growing up in the rural woods outside of Boston in an Irish-Catholic family. This introduction follows a slideshow of rapid-fire images of Crane throughout her tween years, sporting fingerless gloves and a faraway Myspace stare, all set to the anxious sounds of early aughts pop-punk. Following a summer stint abroad, showcasing “Side-by-Side” to appreciative write-ups at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Maggie Crane, a self-described “double Aquarius and lapsed Catholic” who landed in Bushwick, is now bringing her hour-long tragicomic stand-up set back to the States. Hosted by the Brooklyn Comedy Collective at Eris in East Williamsburg, the club exuded a dark and hip atmosphere and was fully sold out for the night, packed with limited standing room.
