Lemon Bay in “Old Ringers,” and “The Savannah Sipping Society.”

performer in The Clean Comedy Challenge, The World Series of Comedy,

Atlantis Casino in the Bahamas, and the North Carolina Comedy Festival.

throat–but after shows, medical advice is given for his amusement only.

Clowning Around Comedy Show is a comedy circus where a carousel of Florida Comedy Network clowns invade Lemon Bay Playhouse once more! Don’t worry about pies or seltzer bottles, but watch out for pithy punchlines that knock you out. There’s always a surprise or two in these adult, clean shows that always sell out early!
