Comedian Kelly Swanson with Special Guest Dawn Landes
Friday, November 13, 2026 | 7:30 p.m.
Dickson Auditorium, Jones Performing Arts Center
For more than 21 years, Kelly Swanson has taken to stages across the country as an award-winning storyteller, comedian, and keynote performer. The Speaker Hall of Fame inductee will bring her “Southern Fried Gossip” comedy show to the JPAC stage for an evening of outrageous characters, front-porch confessions and tender moments that sneak up on the soul.
Special Guest Dawn Landes, a Chapel Hill-based singer-songwriter whose music you may have heard on The Good Wife, House or Gossip Girl, will open the show!
