Caliendo on campus for Weidner Center gig

Famous funnyman and Badger state native Frank Caliendo took center stage — make that center spread — in the Green Bay Press-Gazette’s Weekend section Thursday, talking all things Wisconsin ahead of his Friday (Jan. 20) show at the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts. The Waukesha native dished about his signature impressions (don’t worry, John Madden’s still on the list), his recent weight loss (“my wife actually cares about me again”) and a bit that featured then-Packers backup quarterback Aaron Rodgers at the Thanksgiving kiddie table (yup, Rodgers remembers). It’s a funny piece and a great preview for tonight’s show, for which tickets remain available (check out www.weidnercenter.com). Read the full story.
