Blue Devil Productions is proud to present the film “Detective Pikachu” The film will be an outdoor showing, if weather permits. There is only one showing at 9pm. Seats are available on a first-come-first serve basis, so if you want seats we recommend showing up a few minutes early! The rain site will be APPA 210 & 321.
To reach the movie virtually go here:
In a world where people collect Pokémon to do battle, a boy comes across an intelligent talking Pikachu who seeks to be a detective.
Lauren Faber is a feral comedian who was raised in a basement by the 90’s comedy specials of Ellen DeGeneres, Paula Poundstone and Elvira Kurt. (Yes, she sees the connection now.) Her thoughtful comedy and storytelling touches on sexuality, mental health, and her own questionable choices. She’s been compared to Kate McKinnon, PBS, and a golden retriever. (No, she doesn't see the connection.)
Lauren’s comedy has appeared on Audible’s Punchlines. She was a StandUp NBC Semi-Finalist and winner of NYC’s She-Devil and Carolina’s Funniest Comic. She has shared the stage with Iliza Shlesinger, Fortune Feimster, Maria Bamford, Beth Stelling, Aparna Nancherla, Todd Glass, and Matt Braunger.
When Lauren isn’t on stage, she manages research at a university in North Carolina with a very important basketball team she cares nothing about. She likes one of her two cats, Stetson and Kennedy. They were a gift. Don’t do that.
This event is sponsored by Blue Devil Productions and is FREE to all. This event is a part of Blue Devil Productions comedy series. Please call (715) 232-2432 or go to bdp.uwstout.edu for more information. For special accommodations at any of our events please email bdp@uwstout.edu.
