He's an impressionist, but not like Monet. See, Pablo Francisco does vocal impressions of people, and he brings his imitation tricks to Tampa Improv this weekend. Francisco has starred in seven comedy specials dating back to 1994 and has appeared on numerous shows — MADtv, FrankTV and Comedy Central’s Mind of Mencia as "the Voiceover Guy," among others. And his sporadic on-stage antics, which include loads of self-made sound effects and beat-boxing, do not disappoint and are interspersed with plenty of improv. In addition to stand-up, Francisco owns the Internet; his Myspace comedy page is one of the most visited stops on the entire networking site. He’s also a favorite on YouTube with his impressions of Arnold Schwarzenegger and R2D2. Fans will likely see some of their favorite characters brought to life during the comedian’s weekend sets. June 25-28, 8 p.m. Thurs., 8 and 10:30 p.m. Fri., 7:30 and 10 p.m. Sat., 7 p.m. Sun., Tampa Improv, Ybor City, $20, 813-864-4000, improvtampa.com. —Matt Wiley
