Comedy Performance
Jimmy Tingle
Thursday, 30 Apr 1992 at 12:00 am – Great Hall, Memorial Union
Jimmy Tingle proves comedy and the Constitution can mix with his one-man show which covers everything from flag-burning to the Maplethorpe censorship controversy. He appeared in his own HBO comedy special and a British television documentary on censorship "Damned in the U.S.A." which won an international Emmy. He also hosted a PBS special "American as Apple Pie." From the University Lectures Program archive.
