7:30pm Sun. Oct. 18, 2009 @ Zanies. $12.

“With subject matter ranging from the events of the day to pop culture to dating and relationships, no one else has a point of view quite like BT Kingsley. Attacking the mic with veteran confidence and gracing any and all stages with fresh, crowd-pleasing material and his own quick-witted style, BT Kingsley is one of today’s funniest and hard-working, young comedians working his way back and forth across the country. An instant favorite with audiences, club owners and promoters, his clean cut style makes him a comedian you will be tempted to take home to mom, or even grand mom-just make sure she has her oxygen tank handy!”
