OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (August 11, 2023) –
Oklahoma City Community College will host “The Wonder Bread Years,” a comedy by Pat Hazell, in the Bruce Owen Theater on Sept. 8-9.
Hazell, renowned for his work as a former “Seinfeld” writer and a regular on “The Tonight Show,” masterfully weaves together an engaging narrative that draws upon the societal quirks and absurdities that defined his upbringing during the baby boom years in Omaha, Nebraska. The fast-paced, interactive show gracefully blurs the lines between standup comedy and theater.
“Whether you’re a Baby Boomer seeking a hilarious trip down memory lane or a millennial eager to explore the humor of days gone by, ‘The Wonder Bread Years’ promises an unforgettable show of laughter and nostalgia,” said OCCC Director of Cultural Programs Lemuel Bardeguez. “This captivating production provides an escape from the complexities of modern life and offers a heartwarming reminder of a bygone era.”
Performances are Friday, Sept. 8 at 8 p.m. and Saturday, Sept. 9 at 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. Tickets, available now, can be purchased at tickets.occc.edu.
This project is generously funded by Mid-America Arts Alliance, the National Endowment for the Arts and the state arts agencies of Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas.
Season Tickets are also still available – purchase online at tickets.occc.edu or call the OCCC Box Office at 405.682.7579.
