George Wallace gets ready to make Detroit laugh

He’s been in the comedy game for five decades, he’s made people laugh with his jokes in Las Vegas and beyond, and now George Wallace is bringing his stand-up comedy to Detroit for one night and one night only.

Wallace is set to perform a comedy show at the Fisher Theatre on Saturday, Oct. 25th.

The veteran comedian said that comedy is the greatest medicine in the world.

“I wanted to be a comedian since I was 6 years old. I’m so blessed to be able to live my passion,” he said.
