Comedian, head writer for “Saturday Night Live,” and SNL’s “Weekend Anchor” Seth Meyers will perform in “Laugh It Up Milwaukee 2012: Stand Up to Cancer,” at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 21, at the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center.
The event is presented with support from Bayshore Community Foundation and Stan Kass, president of Skylark Vending, in memory of his wife, Lee, and will benefit the JCC and Gilda’s Club Southeastern Wisconsin.
This fall, Meyers began his tenth season on SNL as a cast member and his fifth season as both head writer and “Weekend Update” anchor. Over the past seven years, he has been featured in ten films.
