Meat lover and carpenter Nick Offerman will headline this year\u2019s Comedy Bash sponsored by UWM\u2019s Campus Activities Board.<\/p>\n

Offerman holds many titles, including actor, producer, screenwriter, author, musician, stand-up comedian and carpenter. However, he is known best for his breakout role as Ron Swanson in the NBC television show \u201cParks and Recreation,\u201d which aired 2009-2015. Offerman has written three books, and he released a Netflix comedy special in 2014 titled \u201cNick Offerman: American Ham.\u201d<\/p>\n

Offerman takes the Milwaukee Theatre stage 7 p.m. Friday, April 7. Doors open at 6 p.m. Buses will be available to take students downtown and back to campus after the show. They will begin loading at 5:30 p.m. outside Lubar Hall. The last bus will leave at 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

Students can pick up a free ticket beginning Monday, March 27, at the Student Union Information Desk. Students can purchase two additional tickets for $10 each. Faculty, staff and alumni also can purchase tickets for $10 each. A UWM ID is required to pick up any tickets.<\/p>\n

The comedy show is planned and organized by the Panther Traditions committee within the Campus Activities Board. CAB is made up of students who plan events for students.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m hoping that this can be the largest event the Campus Activities Board has ever had,\u201d said Michaela Andrew, the Panther Traditions committee coordinator. \u201cThere has been a great team working on this event all year long, and we couldn\u2019t wait to be able to announce him and see the campus reaction.\u201d<\/p>\n
