COMING TO THE STAGE: Christopher "Kid" Reid & "The Bluest Eye"



Remember this group? If you grew up on the 80's you already know .... It's rap duo KID N' PLAY. [i.e. - House Party 1 and 2, Class Act, the Kid N' Play dance ... yeah them ... ]







Well that was then ... and here's KID now! He's not doing splits and making up cool new dances ... and he's not "spittin' dope rhymes" anymore. Now, he's a stand-up comic. And you'll get to see this 80s/90s legend right here in the SBC on the stage of the Funny Bone Comedy Club.






The laughs begin Wednesday night with WILD OUT WEDNESDAZE ... Popular Comedia ALI will host the first show of KID's 5-day run (he'll be here until Sunday). The show on Wednesday start at 8 pm. Get tickets and other showtimes HERE. You must be 18 and up to enjoy the show!

is a tragic story of a black girl's coming of age in the racially turbulent 1940s. Eleven-year-old Pecola Breedlove prays for her eyes to turn blue so that she will be beautiful, so that people will love her, so that her world will be different.
