THE NEVER TOO LATE SHOW
Starring Don Reed

May 11, 2024
Saturday 3pm & 8pm

Snap Judgment Performance of the Year Winner Don Reed presents an inspiring comic tale about never giving up. Both hilarious and heartbreaking, it chronicles his travails and perseverance through the Hollywood gauntlet to Late Night TV. This multimedia presentation features classic footage and graphics from The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson, HBO, FilmMagic, The National Comedy Center, and much more.

Nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards, Don Reed has done voice work for Disney’s Gargoyles, Spider-Man, and The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest, appeared in movies including Unleashed, Fear of a Black Hat, and Once Upon a Forest and co-starred in the comedy series Bartlett alongside Broadway phenom Lin-Manuel Miranda. In 2009, he became the first African American warm-up comedian for a major late night show — and also warmed up for thousands of episodes of network television — from Frasier to The Golden Girls.

Content Warning: This show is best enjoyed by audience members 16 years and older.
