May Comedy at the Ave 2012

It's the night before Petpalooza and we are starting things a little early! Join Rebecca Corry, a Last Comic Standing finalist and animal rights advocate, as she headlines the May 18 "Dog Gone Comedy Show" show at 7:30 p.m. at the Auburn Avenue Theater. Bringing animal awareness and comedy one joke at a time!

Born and raised in Kent, Corry lived and comedically trained in Chicago for nine years, writing, acting and performing at The Second City, Annoyance and Center Theater.
After an 11-month run in the Chicago production of "Tony and Tina's Wedding" as the pregnant maid of honor, Corry moved to Los Angeles. Immediately following her arrival, she appeared at the HBO workspace in her first one-woman show, "Have You Ever Been Called a Dwarf?", hosted a pilot for the Oxygen Network and was chosen to perform as a "New Face" at the Montreal Comedy Festival. Shortly after, she was seen in the feature film, "Big Fat Liar", and CBS's "Yes, Dear" Corry went on to guest star on "The King of Queens", "The Bernie Mac Show", "The Wayne Brady Show", and "Comics Unleashed". Her second one-woman-show, "Rebecca Corry with Balls", was the LA Weekly's "Comedy Pick of the Week."

Corry's true passions are comedy and animal rescue and she travels the country with her dog, Angel. Also in the show are comedians Adam Norwest & Andrew Rivers.

We will also have representatives from the Auburn valley Humane Society, Animal Aid & Rescue Foundation, and the City of Auburn Pet Licensing Division.
