ON THE HORIZON
Called a female Jerry Seinfeld, comedian Wendy Liebman, pic-
tured, uses her wacky observations of life to crack up her audi-
ence. Her stock in trade is the one-liner with the subliminal
afterthought, with a punch line appearing after the joke seems
to be over. Popping up in appearances from Letterman to Leno,
you too can be a part of the "Year of Wendy": 8:30 p.m. Thurs-
day, $10, $20.95/dinner show; 8:15 and 10:45 p.m. Friday-Sat-
urday, $12, $23.95/dinner show. March 27-29. Joey's Comedy
