MICHIGAN UNION
TICKET OFFICE

Pianist Victor Borge will perform at Hill Auditorium on
Wednesday, December 5 at 8 p.m. This concert is presented by
the Office of Major Events.
Los Angeles Times critic, Mark Shulgold, said it best, "Victor
Borge is one of thee funniest people in the world - the come-
dian/pianist had the assembled multitudes, including the
orchestra, in stitches and rolling in the aisles. One couldn't
help being amazed at the man's undiminished vitality, show-
manship, and musical skills." Eight-one year old Borge falls off
the piano bench and the audience roars. He goes through a be-
wildering array of slapstick maneuvers, punctuated by salvos
of helpless laughter. Few pianists spend more time not playing
the piano than Victor Borge.
Borge has been not playing the piano for years and entertaining
audiences around the world. The Great Dane has an awareness
that a rare musical talent has earned him riches only through
laughter.
Concert tickets are available at the Michigan Union Ticket
Office. To obtain ticket information, or to charge by phone, call
763- TKTS.
