It’s time to register for One Reunion, taking place September 25-27!

Student Life is hosting Friday Night Live! Great Comedians on Friday night where a limited number of seats have been reserved for alumni. This ticketed event takes place in Phelps-Stokes and features Berea College alumni Jordan Berry ’22 and Joe Deuce ’08 with event headliner and America’s Got Talent finalist, Mike E. Winfield. This show is guaranteed to feature laugh-until-your-sides-hurt comedy.

Jordan Berry ’22 is known for his Barack Obama impressions and his dance skills. He talks about his Berea story in a way that has the audience in tears (of laughter).

Joe Deuce ’08 has been entertaining audiences his whole life. When his mother told him at the age of 10 that comedians could say whatever they wanted, Joe knew what he wanted to do.

Our headliner, Mike E. Winfield, hails from Baltimore and moved to California to pursue comedy. He uses his personal experiences to comically reflect on his life. His comedy is refreshing and relatable in a way that makes him a comedic genius.

Watch Joe’s personal invitation ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=lZ1Ux4la6EOx-kvY&v=Zor2_1ud-3g&feature=youtu.be ) to join him and other Bereans at One Reunion.

REGISTER TODAY ( https://bereareunion.vfairs.com/en/ )for One Reunion and be sure to register for Friday Night Live! Great Comedian’s event. Limited tickets are available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

We can’t wait to welcome you home!
