For those enduring a stressful
week and needing something to do this weekend, laughter may be just
the ticket.
The Appalachian Popular Programming Society (A.P.P.S.)
is hosting a comedy show called the Comedy Jam, complete with an
after party Saturday at Legends.
The Comedy Jam will feature two comedians from
the RJE Urban Comedy Cabaret Tour: Lav Luv and J.J.
“Both comedians appeared on BET Comedy review
and HBO, so come out because it will be a night of fun, relaxation
and laughter,” said Justin A. Lowery, chairperson for the Council
for Cultural Awareness, a council within A.P.P.S.
Preparation for the show began in August. C.C.A.
worked through an Atlanta, Ga., booking agency to find performers
for the Comedy Jam.
Comedians Lav Luv and J.J. were chosen based
on tapes of past comedy performances.
Both comedians also presented an interest in
performing on a college campus.
C.C.A. faced budget constraints and the busy
schedules of the comedians when planning the Comedy Jam.
That labor will pay off this Saturday.
Doors open at 9 p.m. and the show begins at 9:30
p.m. Afterwards students can dance to the music of a DJ and meet
the comedians until 12:45 a.m.
Tickets for the show will be sold at the Plemmons
Student Union information desk for $6 in advance and at Legends
for $8.
“If you wait that long you might want
to show up around 8:45 or 9 p.m. just to be safe,” said Lowery. |
