Wanda Sykes is Howard Theatre's Opening Act

An interesting tidbit of information ... Wanda Sykes is scheduled to perform at the Howard Theatre from April 13 through April 15, 2012 (see http://bit.ly/x0ZQQK).  That's right after the theater's grand opening gala, scheduled for April 12 (http://www.howardtheatre.org/gala-tribute-concert.html).  So it looks like Wanda Sykes will be the opening act for the reborn Howard Theatre.  Tickets for the Wanda Sykes shows are now available.

Update: An apparent soft opening, featuring Wale, will take place on April 9.  Tickets are available here.
