Heywood Banks: Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase.
Nov. 27-29. Heywood Banks is the stage name of Howell native Stuart Mitchell, a very animated comedian known for his silly musical spoofs, goofy prop humor, and sight gags. Since adopting the nerdy, quietly psychotic Banks persona in the mid-80s, he has risen from a regional favorite to a national star. A longtime local favorite--he even played a few shows at Rick's American Cafe in the pre-Comedy Showcase days--he is making his 10th annual Thanksgiving weekend appearance. Preceded by 2 opening acts. Alcohol is served. Note: The 7 p.m. shows on Nov. 27 & 29 are all-ages shows (youths 16 & under must be accompanied by a parent). The early shows each night are nonsmoking shows.
old VFW Hall (below Seva restaurant), 314 E. Liberty. $17 reserved seating in advance and general admission at the door. 996-9080.
