The Adam Growe
Comedy & Quiz Showe

Friday, April 27, 2012, 7:30 p.m., Boykin Center
Tickets: $18/ $15 students and seniors 

The Adam Growe Comedy and Quiz Showe, featuring Adam Growe, the host of Discovery Channel Canada's Cash Cab, is on the road and will be pulling into the Boykin Center on Friday, April 27, 2012. The Canadian version of this extremely popular U.S. show unfolds in the same challenging manner: Adam, a licensed taxi driver, picks up unsuspecting passengers who scramble to correctly answer quiz questions to win cash. Too many wrong answers and the contestants find themselves booted from the cab, whether they’ve arrived at their destination or not! A twenty year veteran of radio, TV, and stage, Adam is one of Canada’s most accomplished stand-up comedians. He has taken his comedic and hosting skills to new levels with his unique and hilarious one-man-show, The Adam Growe Comedy & Quiz Showe, where audience members can participate as contestants on stage to win cash prizes! Questions are customized to each individual audience, so it's sure to be a roaring good time for all!

To make sure you're adequately prepared for the fun challenge, please visit Adam's website http://adamgrowe.com/ComedyQuizShowe.aspx to see if you have the answers!

Tickets: $8/$6 students and seniors

The third production of the ACT! for Youth season is the classic Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson. This stage adaptation from Stevenson's famous adventure thriller will tell the story of swashbuckling pirates with parrots perched on their shoulders, sailing the high seas to unknown tropical lands. Narrated by fourteen year old Jim Hawkins, who joins the dangerous adventure with his treasure map (marked with an "X") to seek his fortune in gold and buried treasure, the story is also filled with ruthless, salty characters such as Long John Silver, seaman Billy Bones and Black Dog. Long before there was a Captain Jack Sparrow or The Pirates of the Caribbean, there was Treasure Island! Set your sails for the audition and join the adventure!
