Thanksgiving means laughter at Connxtions

November 26, 2003

If the annual ritual of seeing a movie during Thanksgiving break is a bit boring for your comedic tastebuds, Connxtions Comedy Club, 2900 N. East St. in Lansing, has a handful of out-of-town comedians this weekend to tickle your funny bone.

Wisconsin native Jason Russell and funny man David Graham will take to the stage today through Saturday at the comedy club. Connxtions will be closed on Thanksgiving Day.

Russell recently won the "Funniest Person in Wisconsin" award for his one-of-a-kind, high-energy stand-up show. He is best known for his unique impressions and has performed alongside Martin Lawrence on the hit TV show "Martin" and Tommy Davidson on "In Living Color."

Opening the night of laughs will be out-of-towner David Graham.

Graham has appeared on "Comedy Central," along with opening for big-timers such as Sinbad, Chris Rock, David Spade and Adam Sandler.

For more information or for reservations to the show, call (517) 482-1468 or visit www.connxtionscomedyclub.com.
