James Gregory at Williams Auditorium Oct. 7
The Funniest Man in America James Gregory is coming back to the Williams Auditorium at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 7. For decades, the unforgettable caricature of veteran comedian James Gregory has stood grinning: his shirt un-tucked, his arms outstretched, a carefree welcome to a down-home, hilarious comedy experience. It is storytelling at its best. The trademark caricature is the essence of humorist James Gregory’s comedy: rib-tickling reflections on life from the front porch. Tickets are on sale now at www.williamsauditorium.com.
