Last Comic Standing Live Tour

Season 8 of Last Comic Standing premiered May 22 on NBC.  The Emmy-nominated laugh-fest returns with an all-new group of the world’s funniest comics.  Watch the series this summer on NBC, then see the finalists perform live as the Last Comic Standing Live Tour appears at the KravisCenter.

November 7 at 8 p.m.  (Friday)

Diavolo – Architecture in Motion

(P.E.A.K. – Provocative Entertainment at Kravis)

Diavolo reinvents dance, reimagines theater and redefines thrills.  Performers take movement, athletics and daring to the extreme, creating abstract narratives through surreal architectural landscapes. Under the Artistic Director Jacques Heim, the company creates an almost cinematic experience of powerful images that develop conceptual accounts of the human condition, utilizing unique architectural creations, to provide the backdrop for an evening of dramatic movement.  The work of Diavolo is best defined as “Architecture in Motion.”

Alexander W. Dreyfoos, Jr. Concert Hall

Tickets start at $15

(P.E.A.K. – Provocative Entertainment at Kravis, is made possible by a grant from the MLDauray Arts Initiative in honor of Leonard and Sophie Davis.)
