When: Thursday 12/19 from 7:30 pm – 8:00 pm.
Where: Soldato at The Williams Center.
Admission: Free
What’s Happening?

Pick up a signed copy of That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore!
About the Book:
Lou Perez takes on "Woke" culture—the humorless, shame-driven mindset he argues is killing comedy—and turns it into a comedian’s greatest challenge and opportunity. Through sharp, equal-opportunity mockery, Lou tackles today’s sacred cows, from anti-racism and cancel culture to sex and gender. With wit and fearless insight, this book calls for a return to laughter, creativity, and the joy of pushing boundaries.
