"Rachel Bradley is a fantastic comedian! She opens consistently for Christopher Titus, including when he was at Raue Center last year and most recently when they were in Schaumburg in January," says Raue Center General Manager, Kate Wilford. "Her comedy covers what women have to deal with and how to be an Alpha Chick - You are sure to be rolling in the aisles!"

Bradley is a groundbreaking comedian whose high-energy shows capture the heart and intellect of her audience. She's candid, down-to-earth and genuinely funny. Bradley's biting social commentaries are edgy and intriguing, and her stories about growing up southern among a cast of authentically eccentric southern friends and family are pure comedic gems.

A former Diesel Jeans and fitness model, Bradley is known for her work as Bombshell Rae, co-host of the top-rated Titus Podcast. She has been featured on Comedy Central and has also appeared in the comedy issue of "Vanity Fair." Bradley can also be seen in a standout role in the 2016 film, "Special Unit."

Bozeman is well known for his smooth and clever style, great smile and contagious laugh. A former Division III college basketball player, Bozeman began his career in in stand-up comedy in 1999, inspired by nights on the couch watching "Def Comedy Jam" and challenged by his roommate to try performing at an open-mic night. Nearly two decades later, Bozeman is still onstage, entertaining audiences in clubs and colleges across the country.

In 2000, Bozeman won the Midwest region of the HBO Comedy Competition and went on to compete as a finalist. He performed on Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" in 2003 and then finished second in the Boston Comedy Competition in 2005. Bozeman also appeared as a semi-finalist on NBC's "Last Comic Standing" in 2010. In 2013, he co-starred in the indie film, "Flat Chested," alongside Alicia Witt and Luke Perry.
