April 6th Benefit for Diabetic Comic who needs Emergency Victerectomy, Please come
Hello fellow diabetics. My name is Erica Doering. I am a 28 year old
with Type 1 Diabetes. I'm having a Stand Up Comedy Fundraiser this Thursday April 6th, because I need an emergency viterctomy eye surgery that is scheduled for April 11th and I don't have health insurance or the cash to pay for it. I am lucky enough to know some of the best stand up comics around and they are performing at the show. Louis CK, Bob Odenkirk, Andy Kindler, Patton Oswalt, Dana Gould, Naked Trucker and advanced clips of Wonder Showzen all hosted by Jimmy Pardo. Adavance ticked available for 25.00 The show is this Thursday in Hollywood at the Steve Allen Theater. Donations are encouraged and Jim Gaffigan has donated cds and dvds to raffle at the event. Anyways it's sure to be a great show. I hope you can come. Erica ------------------------------ Twelve to twenty-four thousand people go blind each year due to diabetic retinopathy. So when L.A. comedy darling Erica Doering was told that she needed an emergency vitrectomy within a few weeks to keep from going blind - and she didn't have the health care to do it - her fellow comics decided to look out for her. The Steve Allen Theater will host The "Eye Care For Erica" Benefit Show on Thursday, April 6th to raise money for Erica's medical expenses and raise the roof with laughs. The line up: Louis CK, Bob Odenkirk, Patton Oswalt, Dana Gould, Andy Kindler, Naked Trucker and hosted by Jimmy Pardo with special advanced clips of Wonder Showzen and an array of surprise guests that are sure to bring home the laughs. See for yourself.
