Comedian Jim Breuer is coming to Fishtown for a pre-Christmas show.

The Saturday Night Live alum brings his Freedom of Laughter Tour to Rivers Casino on Friday, Dec. 22, at 8 p.m. Tickets for The Event Center show start at $39.

Breuer was an SNL cast member from 1995 to 1998 and is best known for playing the recurring character Goat Boy on the sketch comedy series. In addition to performing alongside Will Ferrell, David Spade and Norm McDonald, Breuer starred in the film Half Baked alongside Dave Chappelle.

After his time on SNL, Breuer became a father, which is now reflected in his stand-up material. His comedy also includes unfiltered anecdotes and insights on topics such as aliens and climate change.

Breuer’s career includes the “Breuniverse Podcast” and multiple appearances on Sirius XM’s “The Howard Stern Show,” and he’s sung alongside Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden.

Breuer is part of the upcoming entertainment at Rivers Casino, which is scheduled as follows:

• Oct. 7: The Concert: A Tribute to ABBA

• Nov. 22: DeRay Davis

• Nov. 24: Brian McKnight
