Tickets: $8 David Graham's comedy career has been a non-stop series of events. His very first time on stage, he unknowingly entered a comedy competition (which he won). That led to Catch a Rising Star calling him to open for comedy George Wallace. His twelve-minute set attracted local radio and television attention and the buzz that followed earned him a permanent emcee Job at "Catch". It forced him to grow, opening for acts such as Chris Rock, Adam Sandier, David Spade, Jimmy Walker, Sinbad and a host of others. Opening for high-profile comics helped get him noticed by national television. He has since been seen on Comedy Central's "Comic Justice" and featured on ABC's "America's Funniest People". Those appearances helped him move up to the big screen in independent films such as "Apocalypse and the Beauty Queen" and "Tapestry of Shadows". Now, he's a nationally-touring headlining comedian, and the ride has taken him to the Joke Joint. Be sure to catch him while you can, because you never know where comedy is going to take him next.
