Comedian Jeff Blanchard Recording DVD at Big Dog Theater Saturday Check back every Friday for Cheap Date: one weekend event or activity that won't break the bank. Clevelanders may know local comedian Jeff Blanchard from his stints on "The Scott & Jeff Show" on WNCX 98.5 or as "The Cleveland Guy" on Channel 19.

The play envisions Charlie Brown and the rest of the Peanuts as teenagers.
