Brown Grand Theatre: Halftime with Billie J - Comedian
2024-06-01 19:30 | Brown Grand Theatre, 310 W. 6th Street, Concordia, Kansas
Halftime with Billie J – Comedy ShowSaturday, June 1, 2024 at 7:30PM
Join us for Halftime with Billie J, coming to the Brown Grand on June 1st!
Billie J is a comedian who could sell ice cubes to Eskimos! A salesman at heart and entertainer by destiny, she loves to engage people with her crazy, real-life stories. Her childhood was spent growing up on a farm in southwest Nebraska where her stories began. She went off to college to major in boys and basketball. She still has a mean hook shot, just ask the referee from the college alumni game! Billie J and her longtime husband have been married too many years to count. They live on a ranch in the Sandhills, and she says her comedy isn’t raunchy, it’s ranchy! Living in an area where comedy is scarce has forced her to use unconventional ways to perform shows. She has traveled to many states in the Midwest, raising the world’s vibration with laughter. She stalks many comedians like Tim the Dairy Farmer, for advice and mentorship. Also, getting to perform with well-known people like the famous actor/comedian Tatanka Means at Rosebud Casino. If you talk their leg off, they will put you on a stage! Having a podcast interview with the enjoyable Nick Hoff turned into a show opener. She calls herself, “Halftime With Billie J,” because she is sharking over half a century of real-life stories. Her podcast, “Not the Trophy Wife,” is inspired by her husband. Ranch life is far from glamorous as her comedy portrays. Billie J has performed in bars, breweries, county fairs, corporate events, theatre shows, post prom, birthday parties, and even wedding receptions. No stage is too big or too small for this Midwest comic. Follow her @halftimewithbilliej on all platforms.

Art Exhibit WenDee Rowe: From the Seat of a Bike
2024-06-10 15:00 - 19:00 | Panther Pride, 124 W. 6th Street, Concordia, Ks, 66901
WenDee Rowe grew up bicycling along K-96 in Greeley County near the town of Tribune. During the summers she would bike the 2 ½ miles from the family farm, do lawn mowing jobs in the morning, swim in the afternoon and make a quick stop to dive into the candy drawer at Grammy Connie’s house before heading home in the evening.

Those early days of biking carried with her when she moved to southern California in the 1970s and later to northern California where she used her tax refund to buy a John Deere-made bicycle!

After returning to Kansas and moving to Garden City, she often biked to various jobs that included Lee Richardson Zoo, the Finney County Museum, and the Finney County Convention and Visitors Bureau.

She was hired by the Kansas Sampler Foundation, located in rural Inman (McPherson County) in 2006. Since then, WenDee has been the project manager and in charge of communications and promotion of the annual Kansas Sampler Festival and now, the Big Kansas Road Trip.

She is also the co-author of Kansas Guidebook 2 for Explorers and accompanied Marci Penner to every incorporated city in Kansas for research.

While living in rural Inman, she has discovered a love for gravel biking and taking pictures along the scenic back roads near her home.

This is her first photography exhibit and all of them were taken from the seat of her bike.

You can follow WenDee on Facebook and Instagram.
