Formerly part of the hugely successful Blue Collar Comedy Tour, multiplatinum comedian Bill Engvall delivers a good laugh, whether live on stage, on the big screen, or on paper.
The story of “internationally ignored song stylist” Hedwig, a fourth-wall smashing East German rock & roll goddess who also happens to be the victim of a botched sex-change operation. This outrageous and unexpectedly hilarious story is dazzlingly performed by Hedwig in the form of a concert gig/stand-up comedy routine backed by the hard-rocking band “The Angry Inch.” Hedwig describes her life’s search for “The Origin of Love” and her other half. It’s a rocking, funny, touching, and ultimately inspiring ride to anyone who has felt life gave them an inch when they deserved a mile.

Thank you for your interest in hosting an event to benefit the Greenville Humane Society! We receive many event and fundraiser requests each year and are grateful for the amount of support that we gain from the Greenville community and beyond.
Since we are an organization with limited resources, we are unable to participate in every offer that we get. Because of this, we have to limit the number of events we attend and must prioritize them based on how each fundraiser fits our needs and capabilities. Thank you for understanding.
