Comedy at the Grove on Sept. 25

Oak Ridge native Josh Phillips will headline Comedy at the Grove on Friday, September 25.

The show is presented by Danny Whitson. It starts at 8 p.m. September 25, at the Grove Theater at 123 Randolph Road in Oak Ridge.

“Come join us in celebrating Josh Phillips’ birthday!” a press release said. “Enjoy a night full of entertainment by some of the best local comedians.”

The show is for adults 18 years old and up. You must be 18 to purchase tickets and enter. You must be 21 or older to purchase and consume alcoholic beverages which will be offered before and during the show.

Tickets are only $10, organizers said.

Here is more information about the performers from the press release:

Josh Phillips—headliner

This native Oak Ridger is an international touring comedian and cigar enthusiast. Josh Phillips frequents the Paula Deen Network and will be featured on an upcoming reality show on GAC.

Monty Mitchell—featured performer

Ever looked at someone and wondered, “What the heck is wrong with that guy?” That guy is comedian Monty Mitchell.

Upon first glance, he looks nice and normal.

He’s nice enough, but don’t let the sugar-coating on this comedic genius “fool ya.” When he hits the stage and grabs the microphone, you learn quickly that Monty sees the world through a very different set of eyes than the rest of us! Funny. Real funny.

And normal? It would take a team of psychologists an average government grant, months of research, and dozens of reports to easily conclude that the word “normal” should never (under any circumstances) be used in any description of Monty Mitchell.

Nate Cate—host

From Knoxville.
