Culture Event #4


On March 14th, I attended the Wayne Brady concert at Hollywood Casino in Charles Town, WV.  Wayne Brady is one of the cast members of Whose Line Is It Anyway and the host of Let's Make a Deal.  His act specializes in improvisation, which is where the performers make everything up in the moment with the help of the audience.  Jonathan Mangum joins Brady on the show.  He is Brady's sidekick on Let's Make a Deal and a recurring cast member of Whose Line Is It Anyway.

Mangum opens up the show by explaining how improvisation works and has the audience give him long words. The words are for a rap song that Wayne makes up.  Wayne uses the words to rap about unicorn sex.  The audience were laughing hard during each game. The other games that they played were Sound Effects, One-Word Story, First Date, Questions From The Audience, and Song Styles. All of the games were from Whose Line Is It Anyway. It was a great show and I would see him again.  I got to see the other cast members of Whose Line like Collin Mochrie, Brad Sherwood, Ryan Stiles,  Greg Proops, Chip Esten, and Jeff Davis at other venues. The show was everything I thought it was going to be.

As proof of me attending the event, I had my picture taken with Wayne Brady himself. My friend Drew, who works as a manager at the casino, helped me get into the Meet and Greet.  It was great meeting Wayne Brady before the show. He was very nice to everyone. I shook his hand and a photographer took the picture,  which I later downloaded off the casino's website. It was great meeting and seeing one of my favorite comedians in person.  I would see him again if he came back to the casino.
