Comics on a Mission, a night of stand-up comedy to support veteran students at MWCC, will be hitting the stage on Saturday, October 29th, at The Theater At The Mount.
The event, with all proceeds going to supporting veterans on campus, will be hosted by Brockton native Comedian Will Smalley, and headlined by Boston Comedy vet and legend Tony V, who will be joined by a number of fellow Bay State comics including Andrew Mayer (son of MWCC Director of Veteran Services, Bob Mayer), Kate Procyshyn, and MWCC student Brian Dickens, who a lot of you may know, even if he is taking a semester off from classes here at the Mount. Dickens, a greenhorn when it comes to bringing his unique brand of stand-up to the stage, has always found himself comfortable in the spotlight, and for him, this opportunity, which was granted to him as an award at a stand-up contest in the spring, is no laughing matter.
“I have been a performer of all sorts for about a decade,” says Dickens. “I’ve done singing, poetry reading, guitar playing, and I’ve even acted in a musical. But although I’ve been a huge fan of stand-up comedy my whole life, I’ve only done it myself a couple times,” he continues. “I’m both nervous and excited to try and bring some laughs to the Theater At The Mount.”
If you would like to be a part of what is sure to be a great evening of laughter, fun, appreciation and support, tickets are still available at mwcc.edu/tam/comics-on-a-mission-comedy-show. $20 for General ticketing, $15 for students.
