Comedian shares light side of life

PLATTEVILLE - Comedian extraordinaire Brad Lowery will be performing at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville on Thursday, Oct. 21 from 7 to 8 p.m. in the Pioneer Crossing of the Pioneer Student Center.

Lowery is a favorite at colleges and universities across the country. He averages over 200 college performances per year. Lowery has performed on A&E's Caroline's Comedy Hour, Star Search, and twice on NBC's Showtime at the Apollo. Lowery is also an original cast member of the Apollo Comedy Hour. He has opened for acts including Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, and Tommy Davidson. Residing in New York City, Lowery is a regular performer at Dangerfield's Comedy Club.

Commented Valerie Wetzel, assistant director for the Pioneer Student Center, "He is a very funny comedian who has had significant national exposure. He will be a great stress reliever. You will more than likely laugh until your guts hurt."
