Laughable Productions brings you a night of Stand Up Comedy with Sasha Rosser at Prairie Theatre and Event Center in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin on Friday, September 18th. Sasha Rosser is headlining the night. Once a scientist, now a comedian, Wisconsin’s Sasha Rosser covers everything from motherhood to RoboCop in her darkly lovable stand-up act.

Sasha has been a selected performer at the Limestone, 10k Laughs, Milwaukee, Midwest Queer, and Sno Jam comedy festivals and has opened for headliners Matteo Lane, Shane Torres, Robby Hoffman, Colin Jost, and Dave Attell. Her debut comedy album, “Dirty Nerd”, shot to #1 on iTunes shortly after its release in August of 2024. Ka$h Money Karl is hosting the evening, Eli Wilz is the featured comedian and Justin Landry has a guest spot on the show. Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door!
