In the Chicago area? Well you’re invited to Laugh It UP with Bill Cosby! One of America’s most beloved entertainers, Bill Cosby has captivated generations of fans with his comedy routines, hilarious TV shows and films, iconic albums and best-selling books. And he will always hold a special place in our hearts as America’s favorite TV dad, Dr. Cliff Huxtable on The Cosby Show. Today, Cosby’s comedic genius continues to transcend age, gender, and cultural barriers.
On Sunday, June 30, 2013, America’s Favorite TV Dad will show his support for Urban Prep by hosting a private, invitation-only benefit comedy concert.
Urban Prep caught Cosby’s attention when he heard that 100% of our seniors–all African-American males and mostly from low-income families–were accepted to four year colleges and universities. The following year, he delivered a heartfelt video message to our graduates at Commencement. Please join Urban Prep for an evening of laughter with one of TV’s most enduring legends. Tickets are $100 and $250 (premium seating) and all proceeds will go to support Urban Prep’s students and programs. To purchase your tickets for the Cosby event, click here.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact Ed Briscoe (ebriscoe@urbanprep.org) via phone at 312-276-0259 ext. 1106.
We salute Bill Cosby for Giving Back to Urban Prep!
