Hosting this amazing show is Melissa Hager! Melissa is a crowd favorite! Best known as the Funny Farm Girl that’s more excited on stage than a rooster at sunrise. From piggy antics to wise cow wisdom, she turns everyday farm life into belly laughs. With the help of her wildly popular YouTube Channel (MelissaHagerTV) and nearly a hundred thousand followers on TikTok, it's no wonder why audiences are over the moon with Melissa. It doesn't hurt that she is the most requested guest on one of the biggest radio stations in Michigan, either. Melissa is no country bumpkin though. Not only is she funny, but she runs one of the biggest and most successful comedy booking agencies in the Midwest, "The Comedy Series”. She produces and promotes several outstanding comedy venues with the help of her focused and hard-working team of ladies. They are not only uber professional, but also as likable as Melissa. Once you experience a Melissa Hager show, there is no doubt you will be jumping for joy and buzzing like a beehive.
