Tammy Pescatelli And Tom Arnold Bring Standup Comedy To Tea This November

A pair of well-known stand-up comedy veterans are coming to the Sioux Empire in November.

Tammy Pescatelli

Tammy Pescatelli will be on stage at The Dakota Gathering in Tea, Saturday, November 7th, for a pair of shows at 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM with a VIP event in between.

The Perry, Ohio native first appeared on NBC's Last Comic Standing in 2004, finishing in the top six. Six years later, she won Comedy Central's Standup Showdown.

Since then, she has created, produced, written, and starred in the reality television series A Standup Mother, which is based on her life as a mother, wife, and comedian. She's also released comedy specials on Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Tickets for the November 7th shows are on sale now for $33. VIP tickets are $66.

Tom Arnold

One week later, star of stage and screen Tom Arnold will play two shows at The Dakota Gathering.

The Ottumwa, Iowa native has been making audiences laugh for more than 40 years. He got his start with a prop-based comedy routine called 'Tom Arnold and the Goldfish Review.'

That bit caught the attention of Roseanne Barr, who brought him in as a writer for her television sitcom, Roseanne. The couple got married in 1990 and divorced four years later.

Over the years, Arnold has appeared in several movies, including:

• True Lies (1994)
• Nine Months (1995)
• McHale's Navy (1997)
• Animal Factory (2000)
• Cradle 2 the Grave (2003)
• Mr. 3000 (2004)
• Happy Endings (2005)
• Pride (2007)
• The Great Buck Howard (2008)
• Madea's Witness Protection (2012)

He was also the host of The Best Damn Sports Show Period for four years, and appeared on Sons of Anarchy. More recently, he appeared in three episodes of the TV soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful.

Tickets for the November 14th shows are on sale now for $33. VIP tickets are $66.
