LAKEPORT – A night of laughs to benefit Kelseyville High School’s Sober Grad Nite will take place at the Lake County Fairground’s Fritch Hall this Saturday, March 27.
The event begins at 8 p.m.
This fourth annual comedy event, sponsored by Kelseyville High School Sober Grad Committee and Kelseyville Sunrise Rotary, will star Del Van Dyke and Huck Flyn.
Also appearing will be Lynn Ruth Miller and Kelseyville’s Marc Yaffee.
Yaffee says this should be the best lineup since the Sober Grad Comedy events started in 2007. “We have two headliners this year plus, Lynn Ruth is a great act,” he said.
Van Dyke, is a comedian, comedy producer and comedy teacher. He recently appeared on “Comics Unleashed” with Bryon Allen and has also been seen on Showtime. He has appeared in Lake County several times over his career, including shows with Al Green (at Robinson Rancheria Casino) and the Pointer Sister (at Konocti Harbor).
Flyn is a 20-plus year comedy veteran and accomplished blues musician. His brand of rock and roll comedy, parodying songs from the last three decades, has been a hit from coast to coast. Flyn has opened for Rockers Joe Walsh and Eddie Money.
As the show’s only woman, Miller, is an award-winning comedian as well as being an author and painter. Miller delights audiences with her combination of music, dance and comedy. She recently was awarded the Branson Comedy Festival’s People’s Choice Award and she has received rave reviews at the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Yaffee will return as the host of the event. He recently was seen on the Showtime special “Goin’ Native: The American Indian Comedy Slam.” He continues to tour with Pow Wow Comedy Jam. The group was just named the National Indian Gaming Association’s “Entertainers of the Year.”
In addition to lots of laughs, the audience will be able to purchase adult beverages, finger foods and desserts. Some great silent auction items also will be available for bid.
Tickets can be purchased at Catfish Books in Lakeport or in Kelseyville at Kelseyville Lumber (Pro Sales), Huggins Uniforms or Kelseyville Pharmacy. Advanced tickets are $20 or $25 at the door.
