 Laugh Out Loud with John Henton and Talent Tonight at SoulJoel’s

SoulJoel’s is thrilled to present a laugh-filled evening with the highly anticipated Talent's Friday Night Comedy Jam featuring none other than the comedic genius, John Henton. This special event, headlined by Henton himself and showcasing Talent, promises an unforgettable night of humor and entertainment.

The doors opening tonight at 8pm and the show kicking off at 8:30 pm. Tickets are a steal at just $25 for general admission and $35 for VIP seats, ensuring everyone has the chance to join in the laughter at 50 Sunnybrook Road, Pottstown, PA 19464.

John Henton, a comedian who vividly remembers his roots in the world of stand-up, has entertained audiences across the country with his fresh jokes and relatable narratives. Taking a brief hiatus to guest star on a "Hannah Montana" episode, Henton's journey includes a standout performance at the 2005 Montreal International Comedy Festival – Just For Laughs, where his infectious laughter led to an additional show request. Henton's dynamic partnership with "Living Single" co-star Kim Coles has also been a source of delight for audiences far and wide.

Having carved a niche for himself on television with memorable roles in "Living Single" and "The Hughleys," Henton has earned critical acclaim, including NAACP Image Award nominations. His foray into comedy began unexpectedly in 1982, leading him from a computer science student to a comedy club sensation and eventually to Los Angeles to pursue his passion full-time. His big break on "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson" catapulted his career, marking the beginning of numerous television and comedy special appearances.

Despite his Los Angeles residence, Henton's heart remains in Cleveland, his birthplace. Outside of comedy, he cherishes time with his daughter, Nicole Simone Henton, and is currently honing his golf skills.

Pottsgrove Students Receive Dual-Use IDs for School and Library Access

The Pottsgrove School District announces a beneficial initiative where all its students will now have a personal Pottsgrove student ID, which also functions as a library card for the Pottstown Regional Public Library. Elementary students’ ID cards were sent home today, while older students have received theirs previously. This move, thanks to a partnership with the Pottstown Regional Public Library, aims to simplify the borrowing process and improve access to the library’s extensive resources for students.

Jordan Luplow's New Chapter: From Braves Camp to Phillies Prospect

Jordan Luplow's journey from the Atlanta Braves to the Philadelphia Phillies highlights his resilience and adaptability in Major League Baseball. Initially competing for a spot with the Braves, Luplow's path changed with the re-signing of Adam Duvall. Quickly transitioning to the Phillies, he now aims to continue his strong performance from Spring Training with the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs. With a solid track record against left-handed pitchers, Luplow is focused on proving his value and securing a role with the Phillies, contributing to their postseason ambitions.
