Comedian Cody Woods to appear at Northern

From The Associated Students of MSU-Northern Program Council

The Associated Students of MSU-Northern Program Council presents comedian Cody Woods Thursday, Nov. 12, at 8 p.m. in the SUB Ballroom at Montana State University-Northern.

Cody Woods has been called one of the most hilarious and talented comedians rising today. While growing up idolizing comedians as a child, he discovered he had a natural way of making everyone laugh early on. At the age of 13, he was recommended to the local comedy club by a teacher, despite being sent to detention by that teacher the same day.

With his unique versatility on stage, audiences are treated to a rare blend of extreme honesty, off-the-cuff wit, social commentary and animation with spot-on impressions, all while maintaining a laid-back narrative. Now a young yet seasoned comic, Woods can be seen featuring and headlining comedy clubs all over the United States. He has regularly worked with big names such as Tommy Davidson, Damon Wayans, Robin Williams, Todd Glass, David Spade, Kevin Farley, Pauly Shore, Charlie Murphy, and many more. He was already a two-time finalist in the Northern California Comedy Competition held at the world famous Improv Comedy Club at the ages of 18 and 19. He was featured on Roger Ebert's blog shortly after as well as online streaming giant, Hulu.com. In 2013 he was hand-picked for the Comedy Central's Up Next National Competition and was also a semi-finalist in the Shaq All Star Comedy Jam. 

Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for students and free for MSU-Northern students, faculty and staff.
