Santa Ana Star Casino Hotel, New Mexico's Best Bet, welcomes stand-up comedian and "America's Got Talent" finalist Preacher Lawson to The Stage. He will perform two shows on Friday, May 11, at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.
Moving frequently in his formative years—20 times before the age of 10 to be exact—Preacher Lawson learned to wield comedy as a powerful tool that helped him fit in and make new friends. He began formally writing jokes when he was 16 and stepped on stage for his first performance a year later as part of a bet with his mom. Since then, Lawson has been entertaining audiences from coast to coast with his clever, well-timed personal stories and animated stage presence. Hilariously curating his own exploits including the role of catfishing in online dating and how he handled dissenters when he got a motorcycle, he takes audiences on a wild ride from beginning to end. Lawson is best known for competing on "America's Got Talent" in 2017, where he was a finalist. He was also named "Funniest Comedian in Florida" and won the 2016 Seattle International Comedy Competition. Lawson's YouTube channel, which features content ranging from travel vlogs to comedy-based cooking tutorials, has more than 2,000,000 views and 150,000 subscribers.
Tickets to Preacher Lawson's performances at The Stage at Santa Ana Star Casino Hotel range between $15 and $25 and can be purchased online at www.thestageatthestar.com. Attendees must be 21 years old or older. For more information, please call (505) 771-5680.
