WellRED Comedy Tour Coming to Pasadena
Article: http://bit.ly/2cpzmgM
The Ice House Comedy Club welcomes The WellRED Comedy Tour on October 1. WellRED consists of comedy and writing partners and self proclaimed “Liberal Rednecks” Trae Crowder, Drew Morgan and Corey Ryan Forrester, whose blog Our Sunday Best “confronts outdated traditions and intolerant attitudes, tackling everything people think they know about the South-the good, the bad, the glorious, and the shameful.” ‘There’s a New South and they’re coming to claim it.’
Recently earning national attention (or notoriety, depending on your viewpoint) for his “Liberal Redneck” series of viral videos, Trae Crowder has been performing his particular brand of Southern-fried intellectual comedy in the Southeast and beyond for the past six years. Trae is also a writer and is currently a member of NBC Universal’s Talent Infusion Program after being invited to their prestigious Late Night Writer’s Workshop in 2015.
Hailing from rural East Tennessee, Drew Morgan draws on his experiences as a small-town son of a preacher man who has lived in Africa, Australia, Miami, Boston, and (currently) New York City. Weaving his stories together with observations on culture, religion, and identity, he’s like Mark Twain on acid, or maybe just a confused Southerner pretending to have it all together together. He is a good dancer.
Corey Ryan Forrester has been writing and performing standup comedy since the age of sixteen – before he could legally work in a comedy club. His North Georgia roots have given Corey an affinity for Southern wit and storytelling. He may often wear a PBR hat, but don’t assume there is anything blue collar about him. CoFo has thoughts on everything from race to religion, politics and gender. He loves women and cheese. All dairy, actually.
WellRED Comedy Tour is on Saturday, October 1 at 8:00 p.m. Tickets at $25. To purchase tickets, contact (626) 577-1894 or visitwww.icehousecomedy.com.
