On My Way To Broadway...Via Gloucester City.

I remember going to see Nancy Cartright speak when I was at Ohio University because I was the biggestSimpsons fan ever. The only thing I remember her sayng is how important it was to her success that she had a mentor. Her's was Daws Butler. Yogi freakin' Bear was her mentor. Can you imagine? You are 19 years old, working part time at a radio station, a Warner Bros. rep comes in and gives you Yogi's number, you call him and he says "Sure Boo Boo. I'll be your mentor and give you 4 hour voice lessons every Sunday." Well he may not have said exactly that. He was Quick Draw McGraw too. 

But the point I'm trying to make is that I am still looking for mine. I'm a bit over 19. And I'm getting worried. But I do have plenty of people who encourage me, suppot me, and come to my gigs. But where the hell is my mentor? Is there a bat signal I can put out or something? Did he go to the wrong house? Is someone in Ohio who was destined to be an accountant under the strong tutelage of Kathy Griffin right now and stealing my life? 

I do have a comic buddy who has been around the block and has taken a shine to me. He told me that "Whenever he is the booker on a gig, I am going to be his midddle person." Great. He books Vitales Italian Restaurant in Gloucester City, New Jersey. That's a bit of a drive to Warner Bros. But it's good for the folks in Gloucester City who get to see me before mymentor finds the right house. Which will probably right after tax season.

I hope to see you all on Friday Night at 9:00p.m. The comics are funny and the calamari is crispy. What more do you wantfor Gloucester City?

Michelle Tomko's comedy is a fervent blend of tomboy sensibilities courtesy of the older brothers she grew up with in the Midwest and the barrage of perimenopausal chaos the East Coast world has heaped upon her. She pulls her humor from everyday observations and classic stories of family, travel, pets, and adversity. With razor-sharp crowd work and improvisational skills to the rock-solid timing of a veteran performer, Michelle’s act is not to be missed!
