Michael Winslow ('Spaceballs', 'Police Academy'), man of 10,000 sound effects is in town to perform on Saturday March 16. The performance benefits the Michigan Fire House Museum, an attraction that works to enhance the appreciation of firefighting history through engaging and informative exhibits.

The museum is hosting its Annual Comedy Jam which will be live on the stage at the museum. Both performances feature Winslow showcasing his comedic talents. The shows are scheduled for 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., located at 110 W. Cross St. in Ypsilanti. Each show includes a cash bar and free valet parking.
