Kansas Union welcomes musical comedian tonight
11. Comedian J.R. Brow will perform at 7:30 tonight in the Hawks Nest, located on the first floor of the Kansas Union. Brow is known for his musical style of comedy, as well as his ability to do impressions.
Chandra Dunbar, KU Memorial Unions' program adviser, said Brow was a musical comedian and brought a guitar with him to do spins on popular songs.
Because of mixed German, Canadian and Native American ancestry, Brow's comedy act centers on his diverse background.
Doors open at 7 p.m. and the hour long performance is free and open to the public.
The event is the second part of a four part comedy series sponsored by the KU Memorial Unions. Different comedians will appear in March and April with performers and show dates to be announced.

Enrollment at the University of Kansas Lawrence campus set a record high of more than 25,000 students this spring while total University enrollment exceeded 27,000 for the first time since 1994, almost beating the record of 27,569 enrolled set in 1993.
"It's great news," said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations. "Usually spring enrollment is considerably lower than fall, but we have 97 percent of the enrollment from the fall."
The University is the largest university in the Kansas Board of Regents system and leads other Kansas schools in enrollment gains.
"One out of every three students enrolled at a Kansas regents school attends KU,"Bretz said."We also have the largest number of Kansas students enrolled."
Lawrence campus enrollments include students enrolled at the KU Edwards Campus in Overland Park and at the Public Management Center in Topeka.
