For Immediate Release:
Get ready to laugh! Country Cool Comedy is bringing its laughter-filled show to the Sumter Opera House. Country Cool Comedy comprises three comics—Karen Mills, Trish Suhr and Leanne Morgan, who have been called the “Designing Women of Standup.”
The nationally renowned trio is in high demand and making a stop at the Sumter Opera House on Saturday (Sept. 28). They are known for taking real-life situations and making them hilarious. They don’t sugar-coat anything and have audiences nodding in agreement as they relate to similar life experiences.
Sumter Opera House Cultural Director Seth Reimer lauded the show as one that fans of family friendly comedy won’t want to miss, “If you’re ready for a night filled with fun and laughter, this is your show!”
Each one of the trio could draw fans own their own. But they discovered that their similar backgrounds and interests created an energy that fans play off of much to the delight and enjoyment of audiences all around the country.

She used to sell jewelry at in-home demonstrations and it wasn’t long before her calendar stayed full—not so much for the jewelry, but because she was so comical.
