Get ready to laugh your socks off with the Comedy Tornado Paul Venier. Paul
Venier has been called "The One Man Comedy Tornado" and after seeing one of this shows you'll understand why. Paul's shows consist of super high energy, guitar parodies, piano expertise, serious music, props and rapid interplay with his audience, that is often stunned by his clever quickness. Most amazing though, is the way Paul continually weaves the crowd throughout the show using his photographic memory. NOVEMBER 3
