Lisa Lampanelli has made a name for herself by being a standup comic. She's the "Queen of Mean" who has made hilariously vitriolic jokes at various celeb roasts — including two for Donald Trump.

But she has added another job description: playwright. Her play "Stuffed" had an off-Broadway run in 2017. It was inspired in part by Lampanelli's long struggle with her weight and how she lost upwards of 100 pounds after having gastric sleeve surgery.

Lampanelli is probably used to attacking different professions. Before she was a comic, she worked for magazines, including gigs as an assistant for Rolling Stone and as a fact checker and then chief of research for Spy magazine.

Maybe that's why she was so good on "Celebrity Apprentice" in 2012: she is up to any task.

It's her standup, though, that Lampanelli will be doing Friday at Foxwoods' Fox Theater. And she apparently does some jokes from her Trump roasts as part of her act.

Local-connection alert: Lampanelli is a Connecticut native. She's from Trumbull, and her father worked for Sikorsky Aircraft.

Lisa Lampanelli, 8 p.m. Friday, Fox Theater, Foxwoods; $56; 1-800-200-2882.
