Coppell Arts Center Presents THE WONDER BRED YEARS, February 24

The Coppell Arts Center will present The Wonder Bread Years, a fresh and funny salute to Americana starring Pat Hazell, former Seinfeld writer, on Saturday, February 24. Hazell skillfully walks the line between stand-up and theater, delivering a delightful blend of humor and nostalgia.

He will perform at 7:30 PM in the Main Hall at the Coppell Arts Center. Tickets are $41 and can be purchased at CoppellArtsCenter.org or through the Arts Center Box Office at 972-304-7047.

Audiences nationwide are enjoying this show that not only revives a much-needed sense of wonder but also leaves audiences laughing and savoring the past. From sitting at the kid's table to riding in the way back of the Country Squire Wagon, The Wonder Bread Years is a comic bullseye. Jerry Seinfeld calls it “Milk-snorting funny!” and the Los Angeles Times praises it as “Pure Unpasteurized Nostalgia.” Showtime declared Pat Hazell one of the five funniest people in America. A critically acclaimed playwright and a contributing commentator to National Public Radio, Hazell is renowned for his authentic, humorous take on Americana and his salute to pop culture.
