Mo Rocca to headline comedy show at Purdue
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Comedian Mo Rocca will mix anthropology, dating rules and a dash of reality television on March 8 when he brings AXE's GameKillers 101 to the Purdue University campus.The show is a part of a three-week mobile comedy tour that is traveling to 10 different college campuses. The Purdue show, which is free and open to the public, will take place at 7 p.m. in Stewart Center's Fowler Hall.
Focusing on what to do — and not do — when dealing with the opposite sex, the tongue-in-cheek show will be full of video footage, on-the-street interviews of real people, behind-the-scenes hidden camera research and interactive live audience participation to customize each lecture to its respective campus. Rocca co-wrote the show and is a contributor to NBC's "Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and a former correspondent for Comedy Central's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart."
The Purdue Student Concert Committee is sponsoring the comedy show.
