Henry Cho: From Here to There Tour @ The Washington Center for the Performing Arts

Henry Cho was recently inducted as the 229th member of The Grand Ole Opry. This prestigious honor has not been extended to a comedian since 1973. Henry’s TV credits include appearances on NBC’s The Tonight Show, CBS’s The Late, Late, Show, and NBC’s Young Comedians Special. He served two years as host of NBC’s Friday Night Videos and had many guest roles on various network sitcoms. Henry was co-creator, co- producer and co-writer of “The Henry Cho Show” on GAC. Henry’s one hour Comedy Central Special, “What’s That Clickin Noise?” was also on Netflix. Henry can also be heard daily on SiriusXM, Blue Collar Radio, and Pandora.

Some of Henry’s film credits include Universal’s McHale’s Navy with Tom Arnold and David Allen Greer; Say It Isn’t So with Heather Graham and Sally Field; and Material Girls with Hilary Duff and Angelica Houston produced by Madonna. Henry was the keynote entertainer for the 59th Annual Radio & Television Correspondents’ Dinner and has worked extensively with Vince Gill, Amy Grant, Willie Nelson, Carrie Underwood, Reba, and many others. Henry’s clean comedy is so versatile that he can headline Vegas and then tour with Michael W. Smith. Henry filmed the Faith-based Indy film “Saving Faith”, in which he co-starred and co-produced, released by Lions Gate. Henry has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Feature Film by the International Christian Film Festival.

The Land has Spoken-Tales of Indigenous Horror @ The Washington Center for the Performing Arts

The Native American canon is rife with haunting stories, curses, omens, and portents; menacing monsters, treacherous shape-shifters, and cunning tricksters. “The Land Has Spoken” brings these stories to life with tales by Native Dark Fiction writers Shane Hawk (enrolled Cheyenne-Arapaho, Hidatsa and Citizen Potawatomi descent) and Andrea L. Rogers (citizen of the Cherokee Nation). Immerse yourself in a chilling radio-style drama with stories acted by all Indigenous cast. Their haunting performances will be underscored by the spectral compositions of Chantil Dukart (T’simshian and Sugpiaq (Aluutiq)) and eerie radio-style sound effects. Prepare to journey into the dark depth of Indigenous folklore with “The Land Has Spoken”. The only question that remains is… “Will you return?”
