This was a multimedia effort to promote the charity and it&#8217;s needs, while producing an event that local residents wanted to see&#8221; said Stuard. &#8220;Our bank would be involved in the promotion, in selling tickets, and getting personally involved with a different charity at each show.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the magazine&#8217;s February edition, the article highlighted how successful the concept is, and the positive impact Comedy on the Cumberland has in the community. Raising over thirty thousand dollars in it&#8217;s first two years, the clean stand up comedy show plans to expand to a bigger venue, with bigger name talent in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a comedian, I know that all we want is somebody to laugh at our routines, and Clarksville is a great crowd for comedy&#8221; according to Bonecutter. &#8220;Clarksville has to go to Nashville to enjoy a comedy show, now, Comedy on the Cumberland brings the Nashville comics here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Comedy on the Cumberland returns to Clarksville in April.
