Sunday, May 7, the Sunday Night Funnies will host its first-ever comedians ages 50+ comedy show at Woody’s Press Box inside The Spectrum Entertainment Complex, 5656 Clyde Park Ave. SW.

“There are more than 117 million Americans 50 and older–35 percent of the total population, so I wanted to do a special show to honor & represent that age group”, says Brian B. the founder and MC of the Sunday Night Funnies. “This year I decided to start to do some special performances to recognize specific groups. In February, we did an all-black show for Black History Month and in March, an all-women lineup for Women’s History month.

“In the Fall, I plan on scheduling an all-Hispanic show in honor of National Hispanic Heritage month. The Sunday Night Funnies is a melting pot of comedians and audience members who are different ages and nationalities, so why not honor all the groups that make up the show?”

The special May 7 Older Americans lineup is made of seven different comedians who are at least 50-years-old. The show will feature former local radio personality Jojo Girard with Detroit area comic Kathy Ryan closing the show. Show time is 7:30 p.m.
