Guidon Brewing Comedy Night
Sep 19 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Guidon Brewing

SHOWTIME: 7:00 PM
DOORS: 6:00 PM
BAR OPENS: 4:00

Episode 7 of Marquee Comedy’s Guidon Brewery Comedy Series features 2 never before seen on any of our shows comedians and 2 returning favorites.

SCOOTER FOWLER
Hailing from Inman SC, Scooter’s comedy is a mixture of pure silliness and a little filth. He believes laughter is the best medicine and should be administered as often as possible. There’s truly no-one in the world like the human teddy bear, SCOOTER FOWLER!

GRACE HAUTH
Grace Hauth is a comedian based in Charlotte, NC. She is a regular host and performer at The Comedy Zone-Charlotte. She has opened for Joe Zimmerman, Gina Brillon, and other nationally touring headliners.

JOY WILLS
Joy Wills is originally from Memphis, TN and performs all over the Southeast. She has opened for Jeff Dye, Nick Colletti and several other nationally touring headliners. Underneath her deadpan exterior you will find a charismatic wit and little to no muscle mass.

JAMES BURKS
When you mix goat farming, glassblowing, video game addiction, traveling glass buttplug salesman, alcoholic parents and multiple head injuries into the cake batter of life, out comes a delicious abomination: James Burks

OUTSIDE PATIO SHOW
This is our 2nd outside show on the patio at Guidon Brewing Company. Our first show filled up quickly, yet safely. Our 2nd show is likely to do the same. So come early, bring your friends and enjoy an incredible night of regional comedy!

RATED R
All our shows are 18+.
We feature adult comics, talking about adult subjects
using adult language.
We invite you to come with an open mind and a desire to laugh!
If you are looking to be offended, we can arrange that, too. :-)

Marquee Comedy: Our Shows Are LIT!
