Big Dad Energy

Jamie Campbell is not your father. He’s not ANYBODY’S father. But, he sure seems like he could be. In a show that combines stand-up, storytelling, and a touch of musical comedy, the critically-acclaimed comedian leaps into what it’s like to get married in your 40s and realize parenthood is not going to happen. He discusses why he is proud of the younger generation, recalls the days when teachers were allowed to spank students, and dishes deep on the time he took acid at Disney World.
