Lake Geneva, WI – Comedy fans will have a chance to see one of the nation’s most recognizable stand-up performers when Paula Poundstone takes the stage in Lake Geneva on Saturday, June 6.
According to Geneva Stage, the longtime comedian and NPR personality will perform a one-night-only show at the downtown Lake Geneva venue. The event is being presented by Kickstand Productions.
Poundstone is known for her quick improvisational style, audience interaction and observational humor that has earned her a devoted following across the country. She first gained national attention through a series of HBO comedy specials in the late 1980s and later became widely recognized for her television appearances, including political commentary during the 1992 presidential election.
Today, Poundstone continues to perform nationwide while hosting the popular podcast Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone. She is also a longtime panelist on NPR’s Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! and previously appeared regularly on A Prairie Home Companion.
