United Nations Comedy Tour Event Details

Close8:00 pm -

United Nations Comedy Tour

The United Nations of Comedy Tour featuring four national comedians as seen on Comedy Central, HBO, Showtime, BET Comic View, MTV, Kathy Griffin's "Life on the D-List", and other national programs. The stars of the show are: Funnyman Skiba (Washington, D.C.), Gina Brillon (New York), David Foster (New York), and Bridget McManus (California). The tour promotes diversity by putting together some of today's funniest comedians in the country of various ethnicities and having them share the stage for stomach hurting laughter. The tour visit rolls through Roanoke, Virginia on Friday, February 3, 2012. Featuring: David Foster is one of the top comedians in New York today. While many comics are sardonically cynical, David humorously and insightfully points out the stupidity of such popular theories and sentiments. Effortlessly transitioning between opinionated, personal, and light-hearted material as well, he amuses crowds of all demographics with a refreshingly original energy and perspective. Since entering the circuit in 2002 he has performed on HBO and Showtime and was a lead cast member as the character, “Sauce,” on MTV’s Boiling Points. Today David can be found headlining clubs and colleges all over the country. Instead of graffiti and marijuana he has now focused his energy on comedy, the martial arts, and various meditation practices. His range of abilities and original perspective look forward to great success, likely as a comic, actor, and writer as well. Recognized for her provocative and uninhibited style, stand-up comic and actor Bridget McManus stars in her own show called “Bridget McManus Presents: That Time of The Month” on the LOGO Network. McManus also hosted LOGO’s award winning comedy show, “Brunch with Bridget”, “The Jam”, a self-help show on Peoplejam.com, The 9th Annual Power Premiere, celebrating women in entertainment, and The Stonewall Inn’s 40th Anniversary Benefit. McManus headlined the Sweet’s Cozumel Palace Resort, Isla Mujeres Palace and was a correspondent for the 8th International Gay Games in Cologne, Germany. She appeared in the Universal feature “Wanted”, was featured on “Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List” and guest starred in theWB.com series, “Joni & Susanna”. McManus graced the cover of BOUND Magazine and the cover of CURVE Magazine’s “America’s Funniest Lesbian” issue, ranking third in their national poll. Gina is one of the funniest New Faces of the Latino and mainstream comedy scene. Starting when she was only 17 yrs old, she blew the crowd away with her very first performance at Stand-UP NY. It was only up hill from there, she would go on to grace the stages of The Comic Strip, Boston Comedy Club, and Caroline’s. Her comedy is the perfect blend of personal experiences, growing up racially mixed (Puerto Rican, Italian, American), and Sex Therapy (Brillon studied Sex Therapy before and during her stand-up career). Watching her on stage, you can really see that she loves her job. She has been featured on Comedy Central several times including “New Faces of Comedy” and “Live at Gotham”. Brillon is also a Si TV favorite appearing on the show “Funny is Funny” as well as the Si TV “Comic Quickies” segments to be aired soon. Already a published poet, Gina Plans on writing feature films, shorts, and a sitcom based on her stand-up. Not only a regular at clubs around NYC, she’s also known on the web, some raves that Gina “reminded us that Whoopi Goldberg was not the last funny female to hit the NYC comedy scene.” Skiba reigns out of Washington, D.C. From the toughest comedy clubs around the country to the college tour, Skiba is one of the hottest comedians on the circuit. His style of comedy is animated and straight to the core. As the great ones, he places his life on the stage for the audience’s laughter and entertainment. Skiba has appeared on Comedy Central and a 3x All-Star on BET Comic View of which he also appeared on the “Best of Comic View”. He has performed with Martin Lawrence, Dave Chapelle, D.L. Hughley, Monique, and many others. Currently, Skiba has landed as a feature on a radio station and working on other television and independent film projects. Skiba is known for making it difficult for other comedians to follow him. He wins the crowd within minutes of his stand-up and only a strong comedian can actually follow. His ability to have the audience fall in love was the reason he repeatedly headlined for the Laugh Out Loud Comedy Tour, headlined the first show of the National Stand-Up Comedy Series, and the official host of the United Nations of Comedy Tour/Project.

Log and Timber Frame Home Show

Experience the Warmth and Natural Beauty of Log Home Living during The Log and Timber Frame Home Show, Feb. 10-12, 2012 at the Roanoke Civic Center's Special Events Center. This show features fully erected log homes and the eye-popping, energy-efficient designs and fine craftsmanship that make log and timber frame homes a fast-growing segment of the custom-home market. "People who love the outdoors love the warmth and natural beauty of log and timber frame homes," show director Paul Patterson says. "At least 20,000 new ones are sold every year, both as primary residences and as vacation or retirement homes. Ranging from traditional cabins to large, ultra-modern homes with stylish extras and technological conveniences, their appeal reaches all ages and income levels." The Roanoke Log and Timber Frame Home Show features educational seminars, live demonstrations, and exhibitors of many home styles and accessories, "Show-goers can conveniently compare log home and timber framing styles and familiarize themselves with many companies and hundreds of floor plans under one roof, instead of having to travel around to see them," Patterson adds. "Owners of these homes all stress the importance of doing your homework before you start the process. This is a great opportunity to do a lot of research all at once." Whether considering a new home or adding distinctive touches to an existing one, log and timber frame home enthusiasts can collect decorating and design ideas from the industry's leading companies at the Roanoke show. Each of its three days includes seminars on log and timber frame construction as well as exhibits covering residential/recreational investment properties, log home communities, one-of-a-kind handcrafted log furniture, furnishings and light fixtures, decorating and remodeling, kitchen and bath ideas, financing, alternative energy, landscaping with ponds and waterfalls and much more. Attendees can also enter to win a weekend getaway on Smith Mountain Lake courtesy of Bernard's Landing, a Kentucky rocker and table set from Rocky Top Log Furniture, and other great prizes. Tickets, good for all exhibits and seminars for all three days, are $10 (free for children under 18 with an adult). For a $2-off admission coupon, complete lists of exhibitors and seminars and more information, visit theloghomeshows.com Each paid admission through the door gets a FREE 1-year subscription to "Log Cabin Homes" Magazine!

Over the years they've played for presidents and princes, students and bankers, at the beach and in the city, on record and in concert. A musical marvel, the Embers have survived disco, punk, new wave, hip-hop and house and continue to take the stage as one of the tightest and entertaining bands to ever perform. They've been inducted into the South Carolina Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame and act as North Carolina's Official Musical Ambassadors. They've opened for the Rolling Stones, done commercials for Budweiser, played the Olympics and President Clinton's inauguration, and created the soundtrack for endless summers. If you've seen their show once, you've undoubtedly come back for more. The classics never go out of style.

Bettye Lavette Event Details

Close8:00 pm -

Bettye Lavette

There's a space in American music where country meets soul, where elements of blues, folk, pop, jazz, gospel and R&B melt in seamless alchemy, where genre boundaries are ultimately not very meaningful. The best of that music is rooted somewhere around two or three in the morning, when all is quiet, one's emotional guard is down and the musicians are able to drive the voodoo down, getting at the essence of what it is to be human. Ms. LaVette is one of the greatest soul singers in American music history, possessed of an incredibly expressive voice that one moment will exude a formidable level of strength and intensity and the next will appear vulnerable, reflective, reeking of heartbreak. Unfortunately, it says much about the vagaries of the popular music industry that, although LaVette has been recording for over four decades, up to this point she has remained criminally unknown. The Jefferson Center welcomes Ms. LaVette to the Shaftman Performance Hall for a season celebrating 10 years of performance; ten years of identifying the unknown and well-known; all of which leave celebrated.

Tickets for both the 7 PM and 9 PM shows are $25 Student pricing is always 1/2 off - Please call the box office 540-345-2550 Gretchen Parlato's entrance on the music scene signaled the arrival of an incredibly inventive modern jazz singer. She has been turning heads ever since she won the 2004 Thelonious Monk Institute International Vocal Competition with which she displayed a musical individuality loaded with paradoxical powers. Her sultry, intriguing voice and unique, rhythmically agile phrasing came with inescapable centripetal force; the more intimate and understated she sang, the more she drew listeners in. Since then she has toured worldwide to sold out audiences. Parlato’s originality captivates musicians as well, prompting invitations to appear on over 50 recordings with the likes of Terence Blanchard, Kenny Barron, Terri Lynn Carrington, and Esperanza Spalding. Her breathtaking performances have been captured on television in Europe and Japan and she has become a sought after clinician on vocal styling.

Punch Brothers Featuring Chris Thile

Shaftman Performance Hall • A Jefferson Center Star City Series Show Sunday, February 19, 2012 - 7:30pm A few individual tickets still remain for this show, but are not available for sale online. To determine ticket availability, please call the box office at 540-345-2550, x1. Collecting five singular abilities and viewpoints into one musical force, Punch Brothers featuring Chris Thiele have established their place among the most dynamic and talented presences across the full range of contemporary music-making. As performing and recording artists, composers and interpreters, technicians and stylists, they continue to push the boundaries of possibility while maintaining an unerring devotion to the basic audience experience. Somewhere between classical, The Beatles and bluegrass you will find old time influence and The Punch Brothers. Punch Brothers first came together, though nameless at the time, for the making of the 2006 album How to Grow A Woman from the Ground, which earned them a Grammy® nomination for the song “The Eleventh Reel” and contains an eclectic mix of covers and original songs. Following that experience, the band began touring and eventually adopted the name Punch Brothers (from the Mark Twain story “Punch, Brothers, Punch!”) before releasing their second album, Punch, on Nonesuch in 2008. Punch comprises music written collectively by Punch Brothers alongside Thile’s The Blind Leaving the Blind, a 40-minute quintet that was premiered at Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall and performed across the US and UK. Mandolin player Chris Thile is better known for his role in Nickel Creek, but in 2010, it was all about his new band, Punch Brothers, and the group's second album, Antifogmatic. The band — Thile on mandolin, Noam Pikelny on banjo, Paul Kowert on bass, Gabe Witcher on fiddle and Chris Eldrige on guitar — uses standard bluegrass instrumentation in songs that are anything but conventional. The music on Antifogmatic is adventurous and complex while remaining thoughtful and personal; a true crowd pleasure and perfect for this 10th anniversary season in Shaftman Performance Hall.
