Van Wert is a destination for comedy! Unverferth Family Dentistry is pleased to present Etta May & The Southern Fried Chicks at the Niswonger on October 23 at 7:30 PM. The Southern Fried Chicks have busted out of the hen house for a night on the town with their new show, the “Cage-Free Comedy Tour!” Rated as the top-grossing comedy tour on the road today, The Southern Fried Chicks provide an evening of free-range comedy starring Etta May, Sonya White, Mia Jackson, and Style Network’s Trish Suhr. The audience will get to know the Chicks like never before in this new Cage-Free Comedy Tour featuring new stories, music, audience participation, singing, dancing, and a multimedia show. Since the debut of their one-hour comedy special on CMT, this hilarious, all-female comedy tour has entertained legions of fans and has never been funnier. Four different stand-up comedians share their hilarious takes on life, love, and living in middle America – think Blue Collar Comedy Tour with better hair and bigger attitude.
Leading the flock is Etta May, winner of the prestigious, American Comedy Award’s “Comic of the Year .” This Kentucky woman is a comedy icon, described as “Minnie Pearl with a migraine.” Etta has been seen on “Oprah”, CMT, Showtime, “Comic Strip Live”, “Comedy Stage” plus many others. Etta May is an audience favorite of XM/Sirius Radio Comedy Channels and on the syndicated radio show “The Bob and Tom Show.” She’s a regular on CMT countdown shows and featured programming. CMT’s Documentary Series that featured the “Blue Collar” boys and “Etta May” places her as one of the top southern comics in the business.
