Jay Leno to Come to The Sangamon Auditorium
By: Julie Musbach
Acclaimed TV late night show host, admired stand-up comedian, best-selling children's book author, much-in-demand corporate speaker, lovable TV and movie voice-over artist, pioneering car builder and mechanic, and philanthropist...it's no wonder that Jay Leno is widely characterized as "the hardest working man in show business."
Having passed the torch of Tonight Show succession to Jimmy Fallon, Jay Leno has increased his customary busy schedule of comedy performances in top venues around the United States and occasionally abroad. An indefatigable performer, Leno loves to test his humor live on audiences across the nation, performing over 100 live appearances in nightclubs, theaters and stadiums each year. He has been touted as one of the nicest people in show business and the hardest-working -- a winning tandem for the man who says, "Anyone can have a life - careers are hard to come by!" His "everyman" style and personality have helped him earn millions of fans worldwide, especially in the regions where people relate to his personable style and work ethic. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 8th at 10 am, recent donors to the Friends of UIS Performing Arts can pre-purchase tickets starting Tuesday, June 5th at 10 am. A promotion code is required by donors to access the presale. Call (217) 206-6160 to inquire how to donate or go online at SangamonAuditorium.org/support/friends-uis-performingarts/.
