Christine Keefer Comedy Bio:
In a post pandemic world where you can be anything, Christine Keefer decided to throw caution to the wind and brave the world of comedy in Central Oregon. This foul-mouthed, menopausal mom of teenage boys shares the trials of being newly divorced, surviving cancer, and her never ending quest to embarrass the crap out of all her friends and family.

Miles Turner came to central Oregon to study the effects of high altitude on toxic-positivity. His comedy offers a perspective on life that makes you think “oh my God I did leave the stove on.” Miles only hope is that you enjoy his material and for God’s sake don’t drive slow in the passing lane.

Craft Kitchen & Brewery

Go for the enticing menu, stay for the beer and the cozy patio. Picnic tables, fire pits and barrels are your gathering spots, and while the outside space isn’t huge, there’s room to bring the dogs and kids. And the inside space offers live music and comedy performances.

The beers: Whether you’re ordering a Po’ Boy, Cubano, barbecue combo, salad, sando or taco, there’s a beer here that will pair well. Pub styles dominate, with a porter, pale, amber and IPA, plus a hefeweizen and a couple of lagers. My pick: Nibbling from various plates, I needed a beer that was nimble, easy-drinking and didn’t dominate. The answer: Layton, a light-bodied American lager.
