Comedy show brings laughs
By Chuck Lovejoy
The Coors Light Comedy
Commandos will return to
Texas A&M Friday night at 8 in
Rudder Auditorium.
Plenty of seats are still
available, which is welcome
news to those who were turned
away from last year’s sold-out
performance.
Vanessa Vance, a Town Hall
member, said this year anyone
wanting to see the show should
be able to get a ticket.
“The problem last year was
that the show was held in
Rudder Theater, which only
seats 750 people,” she said.
“We sold about half the seats
before the show, but too many
people showed up to purchase
tickets at the door. Some
people had to be turned away.
“We shouldn’t have that
problem this year. The Rudder
Auditorium holds 2,500, so
anyone should be able to buy a
ticket. ”
Headlining the program are
comedian John Ferrentino and
comedienne Romie Angelich.
Ferrentino began his career
as a magician and gradually
added more and more comedy
to his routine. Today, his
talents have taken him to
comedy clubs across the
country including the
prestigious Dangerfield’s,
founded by Mr. Respect
himself, Rodney Dangerfield.
Ferrentino has also
performed onstage with the
likes of Eddie Murphy, Jay
Leno and ‘Weird AT Yankovik,
in between movie and
television appearances. His film
credits include “Rider PI” and
“Harry and Son, ” which
starred Paul Newman and
Robby Benson.
Angelich is a Texas
comedienne whose search for
fine retail shopping has taken
her across the United States, as
have her numerous
appearances in comedy clubs.
Angelich’s comedy has been
praised by many publications,
including the Chicago Sun-
Times, who called her
“hilarious. ” She has appeared
onstage with Judy Tenuta and
Paula Poundstone, among
others.
Tickets for the Commando
show, a highlight of last year’s
MSC Town Hall series, are
only $2.50 and are available at
the MSC Box Office or at
Dillard’s in Post Oak Mall.
A limited number of tickets
will be given away Friday in a
promotion at Rudder Fountain
from 11 a. m. until 1 p.m.
Tickets are also being
awarded by KTSR, FM 92, to
the person or persons who tell
the best joke in on-the-air joke
contests, which will be held
through Friday.
In addition, several tickets
were given away last night at a
small program at the Flying
Tomato following the
Hurricane Bowl yell practice.
