The Duke University Union is collaborating with Mi Gente to bring comedian Pablo Francisco to Page Auditorium Jan. 26.
"Major Attractions has been looking to bring a comedian for quite some time now, and Mi Gente has been trying to bring Pablo Francisco," said Major Attractions Chair Chamindra Goonewardene, a junior. "We definitely wanted to bring a comedian down in the Spring, and Pablo was one of our choices. Mi Gente presented us with a proposal and it worked out."
The price of admission will be $15 for students and $20 for the general public. Tickets will go on sale Jan. 14.
Francisco, a Chilean-American stand-up comic who has appeared on Comedy Central and other TV networks, is the first major comedian to appear on campus since Mo Rocca performed in 2005.
