Get ready to laugh! Michael Witthaus talks with comedians and comedy show organizers about the local comedy scene including its newest locale, the Queen City Center. And he talks with some big name touring comics. Photo above and on the cover is of Jenny Zigrino, who will be performing Friday, April 17, at the Queen City Center. Courtesy photo is by Kim Newmoney.
Also on the cover John Fladd talks to the folks at 815 Cocktails & Provisions in Manchester ahead of their third annual Manchester Daiq-Off, where bartenders will compete to make the best daiquiri (page 16). Michael Witthaus talks to Hayley Jane ahead of the Hayley Jane Band’s show on Saturday (page 23). And as we do most weeks, we offer ideas for family fun in our Kiddie Pool column, this week on page 15. One of this weekend’s fun family events is the Kids Con New England, a celebration of comics, pop culture, reading and more, geared toward kids.
