Join us on Sunday, August 22nd as Wells Fargo Advisors presents Stories from the MOB (Mother of the Bride) a comedy, with a little drama and adventure mixed in! Just as each dress has a story to tell, so does every Mother of the Bride! This delightful performance consists of several short monologues of women who will make you laugh, cry, nod in agreement and steal your heart as they share the story of their dress and their expectations for the big day! Written and directed by Doreen Blue and performed by the Pass the Hat Players, Stories from the MOB has become an audience favorite and a joy for the cast of performers!

Ritch Shydner’s funny and insightful multi-media presentation about the history of an original American art form, stand-up comedy, and what all the jokes and laughter say about America. The stories of forgotten trailblazers, martyred iconoclasts and familiar stars show how the simple act of one joker taking on a crowd became one of our most popular entertainments, and a cultural weathervane. Presented in 2 parts, with talk-backs afterward.
