Comedian Dan Bell’s new multi-purpose performance center in Delmar is drawing sell-out crowds since opening its inaugural season in early January.

The Dream Big Performing Arts Center mainly hosts stand-up comedians but hopes to offer a variety of performing acts in the near future.

In this edition of Arts Playlist, Delaware Public Media’s Karl Lengel is joined by RJ Jackson – one of several regional comedians working with Bell to book ‘Dream Big’– for a chat about the new center.
