Fortune Feimster is a live stand-up comedy performance by the nationally touring comedian, actress, and writer. Known for her storytelling and southern roots, Feimster is bringing her latest material to Durham for a single weekend performance. If you are planning to go, keep in mind that stand-up shows at DPAC are best suited for adults and older teenagers. Ticket prices vary by seating tier, and you will want to book parking in advance at the nearby East Regional Garage or use the valet service at the theater. The venue offers standard concessions, but you can easily pair the 4 PM show with an early dinner at one of the many restaurants in the American Tobacco Campus right next door. This event makes an excellent weekend outing because the early schedule allows you to enjoy a complete date night or girls' trip without sacrificing your sleep schedule. You will get plenty of laughs and still be back in your own neighborhood by dinner time.
