Two-time Emmy award winning comedian Louie Anderson will
bring his act to the Santa Clarita Performing Arts Center at College of the Canyons' main stage for a
performance this March.

[view:node_ad=5]Organized in conjunction with the AT&T Champions Classic
golf tournament being held at the Valencia Country Club, the special event ‘COC
Presents: One Night Only with Louie Anderson' will take place 8 p.m. Wednesday,
March 11, 2009.

Organizers expect the event to sell out quickly, and the
tickets went on sale Monday. Ticket prices are $35 for general admission, $25
for seniors and $20 for all students with ID.

"We are extremely excited to be able to present what is sure
to be an evening of laughter and hilarity," said Adam Philipson, PAC managing
director. "Because of his long and recognizable career, large national
following and legendary standing in the comic world, Louie fits in perfectly
with our desire to bring well-known and outstanding comedians to the PAC and to
Santa Clarita."

Currently headlining his own show, "Louie Anderson: Larger
Than Life," at the Excalibur Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, Anderson
began his career in his native Minneapolis, Minnesota
when friends dared him to perform.

Known as a "clean" comedian, much of Anderson's
material stems from stories about his everyday experiences growing up in the Midwest,
being one of 11 children, his relationship with his mother and having to deal
with an alcoholic father.

His big break came in 1984 when he appeared on "The Tonight
Show starring Johnny Carson." Carson
was so impressed with the comic that he called Anderson
out for a rare and coveted "second bow." The multi-talented performer went on
to make a number of television and movie appearances, starring in comedy
specials for HBO and Showtime – and eventually created the Emmy winning
Saturday morning cartoon series "Life with Louie" in 1995.

In 1996, Anderson
starred in the CBS sitcom "The Louie Show," before landing a gig as the host of
"Family Feud" in 1999. Anderson is
also an accomplished author with three books to his credit, including the best
seller "Dear Dad: Letters From An Adult Child."

Tickets to the show Louie Anderson: One Night Only can be
purchased in person at the PAC Box Office from 11:30
a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
