Funny Divas Rock Back 9 Café!

If you like to laugh but somehow still have never seen my good friend and New Tampa resident Susan Saiger perform, either as a solo feature act or as part of the Funny Divas comedy troupe, I hope you will remedy that mistake ASAP.

In fact, the nearly 100 people who attended the most recent Funny Divas show, held November 19 at the Back 9 CafĂ© at Heritage Isles Golf & Country Club off Cross Creek Blvd., will tell you that Susan and her standup comic friends Aniria, Long Island Mary and Robin Savage all have the ability to “make you pee a little,” as Long Island Mary would say.

Back 9 Café co-owner Mark Schwab says he was happy with the turnout and the way the crowd reacted to the Divas.

“For our first time trying something like this, I’d have to say yes, it was great,” says Schwab. “We would definitely like to bring the Funny Divas back again!”

The Back 9 Café (10630 Plantation Bay Dr.) can be reached at 907-0267. For upcoming Funny Divas shows, visit FunnyDivas.com.
