DCCA presents
comedian Dan St. Paul
Darke County Center for the Arts will present comedian Dan St. Paul at
Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall on Saturday, November 15; the show begins
at 8 p.m. “We've had many, many requests that DCCA bring a stand-up
comedian to our community with several people asking for this specific
comic, so Dan St. Paul is truly being presented in response to popular
demand,” DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins stated. “Dan's 'First
Baseball Game' is one of the most popular comedy pieces ever presented
on the Bob and Tom show; we're really looking forward to seeing him do
it live on stage,” Rawlins said.
According to Mr. Rawlins, Dan St. Paul bases his routine on his life as
a husband and father dealing with the frustrations of everyday life.
“Dan combines a sharp, clean wit with an outstanding talent for
creating characters to appeal to audiences of all ages,” Rawlins
explained. “He doesn't just tell jokes, but creates a series of comedic
events that make you smile and then get you to laughing so hard you
don't think you can ever stop,” Rawlins concluded. Dan St. Paul has
headlined at comedy clubs, and appeared on several episodes of “An
Evening at the Improv” plus numerous shows on VH-1, MTV, and Comedy
Central. He has opened for diverse performers including Jerry Seinfeld,
Smokey Robinson, and Vince Gill as well as the San Francisco Symphony
Orchestra, a group that St. Paul says he knew “when they were just a
garage band.”
The performance by Dan St. Paul is sponsored by Second National Bank.
Additionally, the Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state
tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and
cultural enrichment for all Ohioans. DCCA also receives operating
support from the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial as well as
funding from the Ketrow Foundation and Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust
Fund.
Tickets for the Dan St. Paul show cost $20, and can be reserved by
contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or dcca@centerforarts.net, or purchased
at DCCA's office located within Greenville Public Library, as well as

will also be available at the door prior to the performance.
