A guy who stutters and a guy with Tourette Syndrome walk into a room — but for once, they’re not the set-up for some sleazy old-school joke. In fact, this time they’re the ones who are controlling the situation and dispensing the punchlines.
Drew Lynch (whose stutter derived from a vocal-cord-paralyzing sports accident) and Samuel J. Conroe (a veteran comic who’s had “the twitchy kind” of Tourette’s his entire life) constitute the comedy duo known as Preferred Parking. And they’ll be parking it at the Warner Student Life Center at Brookdale Community College this Tuesday afternoon for the latest installment in the Laugh at Lunch series of entertainments sponsored by the Student Life and Activities committee at BCC.
Running between 11:45 am and 1 pm, the performance is described as “the inspirational show people have been waiting for; focusing on how the underdog can reflect a lifelong struggle in a positive and hilarious light” — and motivating the audience to “think twice about complaining about YOUR life!”
Take it here for a taste of the duo in action before a live audience.
