POPCORN and PUNCHLINES • 8 Comedians • 1 Free Event

You are invited to a free night of family-friendly comedy showcasing eight outstanding comedians that will leave you laughing well beyond the time that we spend together. Bring your family and friends and maybe even that person that is hard to get along with and see what a night of laughing together can do for your relationship. 


POPCORN AND PUNCHLINES is part of FOR OUR NEIGHBOR, a strategic initiative of CrossRoads Church at Westfield to meet, know, enjoy, and serve our local neighbors.  When we are spending time together we realize that there is far more that we have in common than the apparent issues that divide us. So come let us laugh together and enjoy one another!

Geared and ready to make your stomach hurt from laughter...

Michele VanDusen, from Oklahoma, was the winner of 2019 The Southern Oklahoma Comedy Showdown and returns back to the Midwest as she was born and raised in Chicago. 


From Arizona, Mike James’ brand of humor fueled by his general confusion of being a husband, father, and just a human being keeps his audiences laughing.


Leslie Rob is a Teacher and Award-Winning Standup Comedian. Her mission is to bring clean, comedic entertainment and encouragement to teachers on stages and newsfeeds worldwide. She is from Virginia.


From Arizona, Brian Kohatsu spent 20 years as an award-winning director before stepping away from the camera for a career in comedy. He quickly found success in radio and gained national recognition when he was featured on Sirius/XM radio. 

A Comfortable Place for FUN!

The IMMI Conference Center is a great, comfortable, and safe space to meet your neighbors, relax after a crazy week, and enjoy of night of laughing about the joys and difficulties of life. 


Popcorn and water will be provided free for you so you can have a healthy snack while we gather together! 



So much to laugh about and love to share...

Comedian Rhonda Corey, from Rhode Island, truly embodies the New England spirit. It’s no wonder that her authenticity with a twist of lovable sass has resonated with audiences from Rhode Island to California and back to Indiana! Rhonda loves our community and has organized this event for us!


Dorie McLemore hails from Texas, is a story teller and joy-bringer who believes that caffeine is keeping her alive, popcorn should be its own food group, and that true joy comes from knowing that we are worthy of God's love in the middle of our imperfections. You will love her energy and honesty!


Chris Ruppe has been performing for corporate clients, theaters, churches, comedy clubs, and charity events. He has performed the audience warm-up for The Huckabee Show, and was a finalist at the National Clean Comedy Challenge in Nashville, Tennessee, Laugh USA competition, and The Comedy Battle in Charlotte, NC.


June Colson is a comedian, writer, and podcaster born in Indiana and raised in the Bluegrass State. June holds the prestigious title as 2020's Nashville Clean Comedy CHAMPION!  June has entertained us twice before and returns again.  Maybe she will do her McDonalds' routine - a classic!


FOR OUR NEIGHBOR

God is very clear about what is most important. Love God and love our neighbors. 


CrossRoads Church seeks to do this in our local community in four very distinct and strategic ways. We are thankful for you our neighbor and look forward to sharing life together with you.


Initiative One: Provide free athletic shoes, backpacks, and food for students at Washington Woods Elementary School.  


Initiative Two: Provide three BIG free events for our community including our February Pizza and Punchlines, our Fall Fest and Premier Chili-Cook-Off, and our June Popcorn and Punchlines.

 

Initiative Three: Provide for the needs of our neighbors including Free Pet Food, Celebrate Recovery, Together Today [A Tuesday gathering for senior adults of games and food] and Free Zumba.

 

Initiative Four: Provide free home repairs for senior adults and veterans so they can remain in their homes.


If you have needs, then maybe in one of our initiatives you will find something here that will make your life better. 


Or… if you would like to be a part of making your neighbors’ lives better and you see something here that piques your interest and matches your skills and passion, we invite you to be a part of seeking to be sensitive to the people who happen to be our neighbors.


If you find something of interest here, we would love for you to jump in.
