Fred Willard Brings I Saw MoHos Kissing Santa Claus To The Grove 12/12
Fred Willard and the sketch comedy group, the MoHos, come to The Grove in "I Saw MoHos Kissing Santa Claus" on Sunday, December 12th at 7:00 pm.
Fred performed At The Grove in "Moonshine" and "Elvis and Juliet", both written by his wife Mary Willard. Mary also directs "I Saw MoHos Kissing Santa Claus". We enjoyed Fred and the MoHos previously At The Grove.
Fred Willard has proven his talent for improvisational comedy on the stage, television, and the big screen. His characters are frequently grinning idiots or exaggerated stereotypes, but his skillful timing always adds a unique spin. He's worked with many of the biggest name comedians of his time, and his credits are far too numerous to mention. He is often remembered for the role of Jerry Hubbard, sidekick of TV talk-show host Barth Gimble, played by Martin Mull in the satirical "Fernwood 2Night" in the 70's. In the early '80s, he hosted the actuality series Real People and co-hosted the talk show "Thicke of the Night".
In the 90's he began regular appearances on "The Tonight Show", (he has now appeared almost 100 times), and had a regular spot on "Roseanne". Since 2000, he received an American Comedy Award for Funniest Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture for his turn as a buffoonish TV commentator in Best in Show, received 3 Emmy nominations for his role as Hank McDougal on "Everybody Loves Raymond", and this year, was nominated for an Emmy as Outstanding Guest Actor for "Modern Family". He has appeared in numerous movies. Some of his most recent popular movies include the Christopher Guest movies and "WALL-E".
The MoHos are a group of improvisational sketch comedy artists who always bring their unique talents to the stage. Combined, Fred and the MoHos offer an evening full of laughter.
Come join us for an evening full of fun with a great comedian and entertainer and an outstanding comedy group.http://www.grovetheatre.com
