“The world has seen how important comedy is during a time when the world needs to laugh most,” said Perry in a release. “My goal is to make this double-show evening the beginning of a series of high-quality events and provide stage time for the determined and talented comedians in our city. We will also be creating more jobs and opportunities for others, such as photographers or videographers.”
Perry said that her comedy shows are not only important for the patrons and the comedians but also for the greater community.
“[They] will also aid the local economy by supporting venues that had their doors closed for more than a year during the pandemic,” she said. “I’m hoping these shows can also give the local arts and nightlife scene a boost.”
