We don’t know why they call $1,000 a grand, except that’s how you feel if you get $1,000.
We know that’s the old name for Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Milwaukee, which is why they named the mall The Shops of Grand Avenue. And, of course, that’s the home to Milwaukee Comedy‘s Underground Collaborative and the Arcade Theatre.
This Friday, Oct. 10, at 7 p.m., the Arcade Theatre features the Grand Comedy Hour – a monthly show that presents six of the best standup comedians from Milwaukee and the region.
From Facebook:
“Every month The Grand Comedy Hour is unique – and hilarious, with surprise guests and give-a-ways for the audience! You won’t want to miss this powerhouse show of laughter. The Grand Comedy Hour is not your typical ‘club style’ showcase. We hand pick every comedian and work hard to put together a fun and casual comedy experience that everyone can enjoy.”
The Grand Comedy Hour is hosted by the omnipresent Steve Breese. Here’s the lineup for Friday.
- Nick Ledesma
- David Freeburg
- Ian John
- Jake Kornely
- KC Michelson
Tickets for the Grand Comedy Hour are $10, and they’re available by clicking here.
