April 25 at 8 pm  (Saturday)

MythBusters - Jamie & Adam: UNLEASHED

The all-new, live stage show starring Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, co-hosts of the Emmy-nominated Discovery series MythBusters, promises to be an unexpected evening of on-stage experiments, audience participation, rocking video and behind-the-scenes stories. For the first time ever, fans will join Jamie and Adam on stage and assist in their mind-twisting and not always orthodox approach to science. This production will bring you face to face with the curious world of Jamie and Adam as the duo matches wits on stage with each other and members of the audience. This show is family friendly and appropriate for all ages. Parents should only bring young children if they can sit through a two-hour theatrical show without disrupting other audience members.

Alexander W. Dreyfoos Concert Hall

Tickets start at $35

June 13 at 8 pm  (Saturday)

Bill Maher

For more than 20 years, Bill Maher has set the boundaries of where funny, political talk can go on American television. First on Politically Incorrect (Comedy Central, ABC, 1993-2002), and for the last twelve years on HBO’s Real Time, Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 23 Emmy nominations. In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, Religulous, directed by Larry Charles (“Borat”). The documentary has gone on to become the 8th Highest Grossing Documentary ever. In addition to his television program – which has featured such regular visitors as Howard Dean, Ben Affleck, Robin Williams, Arianna Huffington, Cory Booker and Michael Moore – Maher has written five bestsellers. He started his career as a stand-up comedian in 1979, and still performs at 50 fifty dates a year in Las Vegas and in sold out theaters all across the country. Three of his nine stand-up specials for HBO – 2007′s “The Decider,” 2005′s “I’m Swiss,” as well as his most recent, the hilarious, “Bill Maher … But I’m Not Wrong,” – have been nominated for Emmy awards.
