Performances are at 8 p.m. Then check out comedienne Jennifer Blaine as she returns to the area for a tickling standup performance tonight. Blaine will perform many of her routines in other characters, including Dr. Amir the breathing specialist, the Latina child advocate Psychic Mama, and the high-strung Dixie. Blaine will be backed by Ron Bennett and his bluesy, urban folk band. Ireland's funny son Hal Roach, Ireland's premier funnyman, will perform tonight at the Keswick Theater.
Roach tells lighthearted jokes with impeccable timing and wit.
His albums are so highly revered that they have been included in the archives of the Smithsonian Institution. Roach's performance begins at 8 at the Keswick Theater, Easton Road and Keswick Avenue, Glenside. The 1967 opera of the same name, composed by Udo Zimmermann, will be presented at 8 tonight by the Curtis Opera Theater and a 15-member chamber ensemble, conducted by Erik Nielsen.
