“I was on Comedy Central’s Up Next Showcase. If you make it to the final round, you get to New York. You only make it to the first round, you end up in Marshall, Minnesota.”

This was one of many colorful quotes from comedian Emily Galati last Tuesday, the 15th. Galati performed in the lower Conference Center for a little over an hour, with much of her show being interaction with the crowd.

Galati has spent six years in comedy. She has a degree in history, and had been doing comedy on the side while still in school. The best part of being a travelling comedian for her are the shows.

“You spend all day in a car to do an hour of comedy. But it’s well worth it,” Galati said.
