Comedians put on show in friend’s memory
Laugh Factory comedian and host Aidan Park will headline the Elks Club Standup Comedy Show Friday, Sept. 10, at the Elks Lodge, 1820 U.S. 93 S., in Kalispell.
The show is being held in memory of local comedian Vince “Vinnie” Carr who had produced a dozen stand up comedy shows in and around the Flathead Valley in 2020, drawing in talent from Los Angeles and Las Vegas, before taking his life last November. September is Suicide Prevention Month and the week of Sept. 5 to 11 is designated National Suicide Prevention Week.
The show will also feature Angie Krum who holds the title of Queen of Comedy in Las Vegas and runs the comedy scene there. Other comedians who’ll take the stage are Jim Fleming, Nick Kynett, Shay Kindopp and Alex Perry.
The show starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 at the door or can be purchased through Facebook or online through Eventbrite.com, Comedy at the Elks Lodge. For more information, call 406-871-4811.
A portion of the proceeds will benefit local and state suicide prevention organizations.
