Do you have tickets yet for Roger Radely on Feb 7 at DBAA?
What do farm gangs, weather warnings, and William Shakespeare as an ice fisherman have in common ? They are part of the comedy of Roger Radley.
Roger Radley is a Wisconsin native who has been performing his comedy for nearly 30 years from Atlantic City to Honolulu. Sharing the stage with the likes of George Carlin, B.B. King, Tom Jones, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, Roger Radley has performed at casinos, colleges and corporate events all over the United States. A unique comedy talent Roger Radley will share his views on rural life, parenting, sports and the loss of common sense. A winner of the American Dream World Finals Comedy Contest sponsored by Donald Trump, Roger has also been featured on National Public Radio and produced commercials for radio and TV.
Roger Radley will take you on a rollicking trip down the human highway with his comedy. It is a show that has been described as, “…true, honest and accessible. If you could combine Louis CK with a Cheesehead then you would have the comedy of Roger Radley.”
