Playhouse on Park to host special comedy night to benefit Park Road Parade
Playhouse on Park announces 90-minute Comedy Night on Tuesday, October 3, 2023. Pre-show mix and mingle at 6 PM with complementary food and drinks provided by Park Road restaurants. The show starts at 7:30 PM and features comedians Jody Sloane and Rob Steen. Tickets are $27.50 with all seats reserved, and 100% of proceeds will benefit the Park Road Parade.
On Saturday, October 7th, the Park Road Association will host its most cherished community event, the Park Road Parade. This fun-filled, one-of-a-kind community event is one of the region’s most popular fall traditions, celebrating all that is special about Park Road, West Hartford and beyond. This year’s Grand Marshal is iHeartRadio’s The River 105.9 personality Renee Dinino. The Parade will be preceded by a one-mile Fun Run in coordination with local West Hartford business Fleet Feet. The 2023 Park Road Parade is dedicated to the late Rob Rowlson, former Director of Community Services and Park Road Parade co-founder. Click here to learn more about raising money for the parade.
Jody Sloane has always had a knack for finding humor in the darkest corners of life. Whether it was the absurdity of a government cheese sculpture or the quirks of her mother’s self-medicating with Winstons and Ring Dings, nothing was off-limits for her infectious laughter-inducing commentary. Her friends quickly learned that any situation could become a comedy goldmine with her around. Fast forward to mid-life, Sloane cut her entertainment teeth doing her sit-down schtick as a cheeky conductor on the Boston duck tours. Her duck tour experience was the perfect tee up to becoming a standup comedian. She’s now a regular at esteemed comedy venues from New York to Maine and has been featured in several comedy festivals, including Laugh Your Asheville Off, Boston Comedy Festival, and The Women In Comedy Festival. If you’re ready to embrace the perversely hilarious, and you’re not afraid to explore the comical underbelly of life, then Sloane is your guide. Get ready to indulge your inner imp and join Jody Sloane for a night of comedy that’s delightfully twisted and wickedly entertaining.
Rob Steen has been doing comedy for 25 years. He began as a street performer at the age of 12 in Boston MA. Using his juggling and improv skills he decided to try Stand-Up! Since then he has kept a full calendar of over 350 shows per year! Rob has also been featured on several TV shows including The Late Show with Dave Letterman where he was a frequent guest. Rob is very high energy and will bring the whole audience together as a group with his unique style of crowd participation. His act is a mix of situations & observations that he has been in for the past 21 years of being an entertainer. Rob has been compared to Robin Williams due to his fast paced delivery & quick wit. Rob is great at working the crowd and making every show different. It is no wonder he is one of the most request comedians in the Northeast. Rob will keep you on your toes and laughing non-stop.
