One Night Only
March
19, 2013 Darke County, OH— For One Night
Only, April 20th, the fantastic comic styling’s of Tim Cavanagh, will
be
available in Greenville, Ohio, that’s right, Tim Cavanagh, world famous
comic
will be appearing
in Greenville,
Ohio. If you don’t
know Tim, did you
hear the one about the high school teacher who walked into a comedy
club--and
they hired him? That's where the Tim Cavanagh comedy story begins. For
a full
year, Tim taught teenagers by day. By night, he sang his funny songs in
Chicago
comedy clubs. "Not surprisingly, I found the biggest difference between
the classroom and the nightclub was the drunks--which I generally let
the
principal handle," Tim says.
Since
leaving the classroom, Tim Cavanagh has
brought his comedic songs and inventive stand-up to concert halls,
corporations, college campuses and nightclubs across America. A regular
guest
on "The Bob & Tom Show," a nationally syndicated radio shows
now
heard in 150 markets. For two years, Tim did a weekly segment on the
show
called "The One Minute Song," which spawned two more CDs released on
Tim's own label, Hits & Giggles Records. At a recent Hits
& Giggles
awards dinner, Tim was recognized by the label as their "Best
Artist," an award he has won three out of the last four years. Even
though
he is the only act on the roster, a misty-eyed Cavanagh was quoted as
saying,
"It's still a big thrill."
Tim
won’t be alone at this event either, with a
little warm-up humor from local
radio
stars Dan “the man” Franks of Joy FM as the “Master of Ceremonies” time
will
simply hum along and Alex “Market Time” Mikos of WTGR will keep you
amused
until headliner, Tim Cavanagh is ready to take the stage. There is also some
interactive fun provided
by Louise Party Rentals, of Union City, who will be bringing a photo
booth to
the event. From
5:30pm-7:30m, lucky
guests will be able to take “old-fashioned” photo booth pictures as
souvenirs
of their Night of Comedy and Caring. If that isn’t enough, Paul Ackley,
will be
available pre-show as well to create quick caricatures of attending
guests, as
well. Ackley
started drawing for a
local newspaper while he was in high school and has since earned four
Associated Press Awards from the Ohio Associated Press. He also
received a
commendation from the Ohio House of Representatives recognizing his
achievements as an artist. One of his most prized accomplishments is
having one
of his editorial cartoons being presented to Congressman John Boehner.
The
original drawing is currently displayed on the wall of Boehner’s office
in
Washington, DC. and now you, too, can have the opportunity to have him
draw you
as well. To finish
out the meal, a sweet
treat will be delivered from new bakery artist, Betsy Ward, from A
& B
Coffee & Cake.
