The Division of Student Affairs will host “A Night with Chris Jones” on Friday, April 12, at 7 p.m. in Doermann Theatre.

Chris Jones is a hypnotist, comedian and the host of the new prank series “Double Take” on Facebook Watch. In each episode of the series, Jones conspires with a different celebrity to give one adoring fan the surprise of a lifetime: meeting and interacting with their idol in a range of crazy circumstances, though – under hypnosis – unable to recognize them.

Since his first TV appearance, Chris has performed on The Steve Harvey Show, Windy City Live, Good Day Chicago, Penn and Teller, Scam School and the Adam Carolla Show.

“A Night with Chris Jones” is a part of the University’s ongoing commitment to elevate student experiences. Students will be required to present their Rocket ID upon entry.
