Clean Comedy for a Cause does shows to raise money for local nonprofits. We are pleased to partner with Bridge a Life for this show. A HUGE percentage of ticket sales will go to their wonderful cause. Headliner - Mark Evans Fresh off his Dry Bar Special, Mark has spent his entire life in the South. However, he is NOT what you might expect to see when you hear the words “Southern Comic”. Not only is his comedy hilarious, it’s smart, to the point, and cutting-edge clean. In fact, his “Southern, Not Stupid!” tour has been taking audiences by storm from coast to coast, on land and at sea (Carnival Cruise Lines). Featuring Lori Evans After a rewarding career as an elementary school teacher, Lori graduated from the classroom to the stage. Stand-up was a natural progression for her, as she realized that performing at a comedy club is not that different from standing in front of a room full of six-year-olds. She has taken 31 years of hilarious interactions with kids that made her “head explode” and is now making audiences explode with laughter. Special Guest - Kathy McSteen Kathy McSteen started stand-up at age 65. A three time Visani First Comic Standing Finalist, Kathy enjoys sharing her sometimes off-kilter take on the world, Florida, family, and herself , She has performed at Venice Theatre, Venice Performing Arts Center, Sarasota Classic Car Museum, North Port's Common Grounds, Englewood's Lemon Bay Playhouse, private groups and " way too many bars for somebody my age." Kathy is also author of "Grandma's Murder Club" a stage adaptation of Florence Henderson's last movie, "Bad Grandmas."
