Last week, the Princes of Comedy tour missed its gig at the Capitol Theatre -- something about getting held up at the Las Vegas airport.

But instead of blowing off Yakima, the tour is swinging through town to make up the show.

"A lot of promoters would say, 'Oh, well.' But that's not the reputation we wanted to have," says Julian Young, who's promoting the show that features a number of young comics hand-picked by actor/comedian D.L. Hughley.

The Princes of Comedy will be taking the Capitol Theatre stage at 8 tonight.

Tickets are available at a discount for $10 through TicketsWest, 800-325-7328, or the Capitol Theatre box office, 853-2787. According to Young, a portion of ticket sales will be donated to the Children's Wishes and Dreams foundation.

Tickets to the canceled show, which was Aug. 8, also will be honored and will grant ticket-holders admission to a meet-and-greet with the comedians. Call the Capitol box office for details.
