Jo Koy Comedy
Sunday, February 10:
Jo Koy Comedy. Born in Tacoma, Washington to an American father and Filipina mother, Jo Koy credits his mother for his comedic and acting talents. Her encouragement led to a Las Vegas coffee house, then a move to Los Angeles and finally a performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in 2005. Jo became one of the select few to ever receive a standing ovation on the show. Jo’s infectiously explosive energy on stage, insightful jokes and family inspired humor cross all boundaries and led Daily Variety to name him one of the “10 Comics to Watch.” Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Castle Theater, 7:30 p.m. For tickets and information call (808) 242-7469 or visit www.mauiarts.org.
