“The Dads of Comedy” at Tempe Center for the Arts

 Bring your dad to see a comedy show that brings some of the best local comics to the stage, include Ken Kaz, whose “Unplanned Parenthood” show was one of the longest running in Arizona. Kaz is joined by four other comedians to discuss their experiences of fatherhood and how they had to laugh—to keep from crying. Hopefully your father can’t relate. See it Friday, June 13 at Tempe Center for the Arts, with tickets ranging from $10 for general admission to $25 for VIP.
