The Original Bad Girl Of Comedy will be back in the great Northwest for one night only!
Don’t Miss Luenell as she joins the “Set The House On Fire” Comedy Tour at Benaroya Hall in Seattle on Friday September 21st for one show ONLY! Catch headliner and Las Vegas staple GEORGE WALLACE with J. ANTHONY BROWN, PIERRE and LUENELL for this spectacular evening, all hosted by Seattle comic NATE JACKSON.
GEORGE WALLACE, who has been selling out comedy clubs and concert venues all over the country, derives his comedy from the everyday, and simply shares moments of life. He finds humor everywhere he turns, from media to relationships to dialogue clichés. At all costs, he avoids standard opening lines and is known to be an ace at reading an audience. Las Vegas loves their resident comedic headliner, but even more so, George loves Las Vegas in return. In 2004, George appeared as the headlining star of his own show at The Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas for a 30 day run. “Sin City” showed its admiration by extending George’s contract indefinitely.
J. ANTHONY BROWN is a titanic comedic force! His sidesplitting antics and sensibilities have set a precedent that many now follow. His penchant for alligator shoes and rainbow colored suits convey his “party time” approach for fun. BET recognized the power of his comedic drive and therefore had him host two consecutive seasons of their top rated network show, Comic View, revamped as Club Comic View. As testimony to the comedian’s draw power, his season had some of the comedy world’s biggest names grace the stage.
PIERRE first caught the world’s attention on the opening season of HBO’s Def Comedy Jam. He then went on to do BET Comic View several times, along with every comedy show from Showtime at the Apollo, Martin Lawrence Presents and the Late Nite TV Shows. Pierre has played Halle Berry’s boyfriend in B.A.P.S., stolen scenes opposite Bill Bellamy in the movie How to be a Player, and he also starred opposite legendary comedic actor Leslie Nielsen as his partner in the movie 2001: A Space Travesty.
LUENELL is a force of nature. This talented comedienne, actress and singer is becoming increasingly popular from her appearances in television, film and music videos. Best known for her controversial role as the “hooker with the heart of gold” in the 2006 blockbuster comedy Borat – Luenell is recognized by both mainstream and urban sectors of the population. Her two-year tour and DVD appearances in Katt Williams American Hustle have created an almost cult-like following.
