Ladman fills in for Louie Anderson

Cathy Ladman is one of those "Oh yeah, I know her" comedians you recognize more by sight than name.

She's been going strong since the early '90s with a stand-up, writing and acting career. Ladman turns up on most of the late-night chat shows, TV dramas such as "Brothers & Sisters" and she was in this season's debut episode of "Mad Men."

Today and Saturday, she gives Louie Anderson a week off from the comedy club that carries his name at Palace Station, 2411 W. Sahara Ave. Shows are at 8:30 p.m. and tickets are $55, with a $15 discount for locals. Call 547-5300.
