Saturday Evening Live Presents the Village Idiots’ Sketchy Christmas Special
Village Theatre | Village of East Davenport, Davenport, IA | December 22, 1018 | 7pm
Are you familiar with that show, Saturday Night Live? Cool! I'm working with some amazingly talented and hilarious people and we are putting on a 90-minute direct rip-off of an episode of Saturday Night Live. Expect to laugh because it will actually be funny (so I guess not a DIRECT rip-off). *Holiday Themes Present*
Celebration of the Literary Arts
CityView Celebrations at Trimble Pointe | Moline, IL | Thursday, October 25 | 5:30pm
I'll be hosting this innovative fundraiser to benefit the Midwest Writing Center where we will be announcing the 2018 David R. Collins Literary Achievement Award Recipient. The event will be held at a breathtaking new venue, featuring dinner, drinks, a social hour, and a keynote address by Iowa Poet Laureate, Mary Swander.
Sudden Theatre
The Village Theatre | Village of East Davenport - Davenport, IA | Saturday, Oct 6 | 7pm
I wrote an SNL-style sketch about a rich Bettendorf (predominantly christian community) kid with two garbage parents. The sketch was riddled with drug, oral sex, and homosexuality references. They still let me write it and the local actors and production staff did one hell of a job bringing it to life. Extremely cool experience even though I had to work and missed the actual show.
Story Show: Epic Festival Tales
Triple Crown Whiskey Bar and Raccoon Motel | Downtown Davenport, IA | Thursday, Aug 30 | 6pm
I have a story to share about a music festival and/or I am going to make fun of music festivals and/or I am going to do a live comedically-dramatic reading of my re-written version of the plot summary of the movie Wayne's World 2. Expect a blend of all three. Come watch (or ignore me) and check out the other awesome folks getting up to share their tales as well.
Speakeasy Laugh Hard Stand-Up Comedy Challenge
The Circa 21 Speakeasy | Downtown Rock Island, IL | Saturday, September 8 | 7pm
Oh shit. A competition. Am I nervous? Fuck yes! That's ok. I am going to do my very, very best to get over my own extreme mental block about not being able to memorize anything and I am going to get up there and do my very best at being a real stand-up comedian. It's a fucking SKILL you guys. Not at all for the faint of heart. Come show your support to me and the other extremely talented and fearless comics who are getting up on stage while we make fools of ourselves for a chance at $1,000. Just FYI, $1,000 goes A. LONG. WAY. in this area. #costofliving #tagtheqc
Show Us Your Pokeballs At the Broken Saddle
Broken Saddle | Moline, IL | Saturday, July 21 | 8pm
I'll be opening the show with a short reading of my creation before Todd Willhite gets up on stage so you can see a real stand up comedian and then the 'Show Us Your Pokeballs' improv troupe will tickle your funny bone with I assume wacky Pokemon Go scenes.
Story Show
Triple Crown Whiskey Bar & Raccoon Motel | Davenport, IA | Friday July 20 | 6pm
The theme for this show is SUMMER MADNESS. I'll be reading aloud a short comedy/horror essay I wrote so buckle the fuck up! I hope they'll turn the house lights down and let me read it with a flashlight on my face! Is open flame against fire code because a literal campfire would be an awesome added-touch!
The Midwest Writing Center's Read Local
Bettendorf Public Library | Bettendorf, IA | Wednesday April 11 | 7pm
Johnnie Cluney and I will be chatting about Something's Missing, come hang out!
The Hollywood Hotel's Pretty Good Open Mic
The Hollywood Hotel | Los Angeles, CA | Saturday Nights | 6pm
I used to do a reoccurring set at the open mic at the Hollywood Hotel in the very early 2010's. I was not fully mentally, financially, nor emotionally prepared to handle doing stand up comedy in Los Angeles at that particular time in my life!
Acme Comedy Company Open Mic
Acme Comedy Company | Minneapolis, MN | Monday Nights | 8pm
This is where I got my start in stand-up comedy. I did not do it right. I pissed off a lot of comics and learned pretty quickly that the term "Minnesota Nice" should always be in quotation marks.
