Comedy Show Featuring Comedians Ages 50+
This special Sunday Night Funnies event focuses on comedians who are 50+ in age in honor of May being Older Americans Month. This comedy show is free to enter and while you are there pick up some of the 50/50 raffle tickets because those proceeds will go to Gilda's Club of Grand Rapids.
Longtime radio personality JoJo Girard will headline this special 50+ Sunday Night Funnies event. Girard was the morning show host at WFGR for several years but has always done stand-up as one of his true passions. JoJo is hilarious and was one of my favorite co-workers to chat with. I saw him perform at Gilda's Laughfest the day before the lockdown of the pandemic in 2020 and he had a great set.
Jojo will be joined on stage for the Sunday Night Funnies by Detroit area comic Kathy Ryan, and comedians Ed Hunter, Tom Hofbauer, Bob Johnson, Eva Pritchard, and Jim Charles. The show is free so you will want to get Woody's Pressbox early. Doors will open at 7:30 with the show beginning at 8:30 pm.
