I-Drive May Happenings

Thursday, April 26, 2018
The I-Drive Calendar is full of events for the month of May! From laughs and family fun activities to festivals full of experiences that everyone will enjoy! All we can say is that you’ll want to be on I-Drive this May.
 
Let the good times roll
  
It’s no secret that a little laugh can go a long way, and this month on I-Drive we’re expecting lots of laughs. The Orlando Improv Comedy Club and Dinner Theatre has a busy month. Getting off to a hilarious start, Nate Bargatze will be performing from May 3rd to May 6th. Appearing on the Tonight Show and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, known on Conan for his 4 appearances, and even having his own Comedy Central Presents in 2011, this stand-up comedian from Old Hickory, TN will be putting on a show to remember. On May 10th Damon Williams comes in to keep the laughs rolling. Damon's numerous television appearances include BET's Comicview annually since '94 including his own one hour special. He's hosted Showtime at the Apollo and opened for the Kings of Comedy Tour. And to finish off May with a chuckle, Rhea Butcher will be performing starting May 31st through June 3rd. You probably know Rhea from the television series, “Take My Wife”, but with various appearances in the world of stand-up comedy, Rhea was named one of Variety’s Top Ten Comics to Watch in 2017 at the Just for Laughs festival.

Some Just for Kids weekend highlights include concerts starring your child’s favorite characters, the Elmo Rocks concert where you’ll be asked to sing and play along with the whole Sesame Street crew, a Kids Dance Party, Breakfast with Elmo and Friends, and a trip to the SeaPort theatre for a show casting unlikely characters such as dogs, doves, potbellied pigs and various other animal guests. This event will have the whole family laughing in no time and will be an experience to remember for years to come.
