Rahn Hortman has a unique blend of profanity-free banter! He makes pointed observations about everyday people that leaves no one safe. At 5'5 1/2" (don't forget the half) he's still waiting on the NBA to call. Until then, he's become a crowd favorite bringing home the title in the TV Channel 32 Comedy Challenge, Nationally Syndicated Cowhead Competition, and he was a Finalist in Florida's Funniest Comedian. On Friday, January 5 at 7:30 pm, Rahn will be joined by other funny friends (TBA), so come out and join us for the Firehouse Center Stage Comedy Show!
