What better way to end 2024 and welcome in 2025 than with laughter! Waterbury’s Seven Angels Theatre has booked a trio of comedians straight from the Big Apple for just such an auspicious occasion on Tuesday, December 31 and please consider yourself cordially invited to either the 5 p.m. or 8 p.m. performances, with a glass of complimentary champagne to toast either after the 5 p.m. show or before the 8 p.m. show. Welcome 2025 in style.
Plan to spend New Year’s Eve at Seven Angels Stand Up Countdown: Comedy Night. Leading the merry parade is one of Seven Angels’ favorite mistress of ceremonies Michelle Gotay, who just finished another stint as the hilarious Earlene Babcock, the proprietress of Pottsville’s jovial diner, tavern, motel and cabaret. For more than three decades, Michelle has put on her special entertainment hats as a variety of humor divas and pushed her extraordinary envelope to all kinds of outrageous lengths. She is sure to punch up her emcee talents to hysterical limits.
Joining her will be headliner Steve Shaffer known for clean humor and popularity on college campuses, country clubs, cruise ships and corporate retreats. His credits include dozens of comedy television gigs and appearances with such stars as George Carlin, Paul Anka and The Beach Boys.
A regular on the Seven Angels stage will be John Iavarone, hailing from the Bronx, who has been described in one big word: honest and original and animated. Whether he is appearing at comedy clubs or casinos, his audiences find him hysterically funny and you will surely do too.
Completing the comic lineup, come meet Rich Francese, a man with a sure fire delivery, a fast improvisational style and the ability to spit out great original material. His writing for Colin Quinn as a full time staff member led to him being described by Quinn: “Rich is one of the greatest minds in popular comedy” and by Conan O’Brian as “a truly accomplished triple threat.” High praise indeed, a “must see.”
For tickets ($50), call Seven Angels Theatre, 1 Plank Road, Waterbury at 203-757-4676 or online at boxoffice@sevenangelstheatre.org.
Don’t miss this great and glorious opportunity to start off 2025 with a smile in your heart and a hearty laugh on your lips…both with the delicious flavor of champagne.
