Comedy Show -Three Bridges Distillery & Taproom- Midland

This show brought to you in part by STREETER BROTHERS, NAY'S CLEANING SERVICES and PIZZA BAKER.

Headlining the show is the hysterical Billy Ray Bauer! Billy Ray's comedy is derived from everyday life. Marriage, children, relatives, pets, cars, all thrown into the blender. Add a few impressions, dialects, and improvised interactions with a live audience and you have an hour or more of barely controlled comedic mayhem. Billy Ray has performed with Drew Carey, Lewis Black, Tim Allen, and The Smothers Brothers. He has performed in 40 states, and in Canada at comedy clubs, casinos and corporate functions for many major companies including General Motors and MicroSoft. Billy Ray has appeared on the nationally syndicated Bob and Tom Show and was named best local comedian for 2017 by Hour Detroit Magazine.

Also featuring Nick Dlouhy! Nick is a standup comedian based in Cleveland, OH. His roots in standup comedy are in Chicago, where he performed for nine years. He is also a graduate of IO Improvisation program and hosted at The Second City's Training Center. Nick combines self-deprecation with weirdness into a fun, upbeat act. His standup includes jokes about being a new dad, regrets about living his former "bro" life, and how he looks like Lebron James. Nick has run shows in support of our veterans (so he's a great person!) and in support of himself (a great person with material needs). Nick has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland and clubs all over the country.

Hosting the evening is Melissa Hager! Melissa is a crowd favorite! Best known as the Funny Farm Girl that’s more excited on stage than a rooster at sunrise. From piggy antics to wise cow wisdom, she turns everyday farm life into belly laughs. With the help of her wildly popular YouTube Channel (MelissaHagerTV) and nearly a hundred thousand followers on TikTok, it's no wonder why audiences are over the moon with Melissa. It doesn't hurt that she is the most requested guest on one of the biggest radio stations in Michigan, either. Melissa is no country bumpkin though. Not only is she funny, but she runs one of the biggest and most successful comedy booking agencies in the Midwest, "The Comedy Series”. She produces and promotes several outstanding comedy venues with the help of her focused and hard-working team of ladies. They are not only uber professional, but also as likable as Melissa. Once you experience a Melissa Hager show, there is no doubt you will be jumping for joy and buzzing like a beehive.
