Actress, comedian and producer Rebel Wilson will visit ���Ҵ�ý�ƽ������ on April 15 as part of a campus speaker event presented by the student-run Distinguished Speakers Board.��.

Tickets for An Evening with Rebel Wilson are $2 for students, $8 for CU faculty and staff, and $15 for the general public. Doors open at 6 p.m. Additional handling fees may apply.

Perhaps best known for her breakout roles in “Bridesmaids” and the “Pitch Perfect” movies, Wilson began her acting career in Australia, where she was born and raised. In addition to acting, she has been a producer and author, recently penning the memoir “Rebel Rising: A Memoir.”

“Rebel Wilson has built a career by turning individuality into a strength,” said Cooper Baldwin, chair of the Distinguished Speakers Board. “Her willingness to take risks, challenge expectations and bring humor into everything she does makes her a compelling voice for students thinking about how to carve out their own path.”

Wilson’s story resonates strongly with students navigating academic, personal and career decisions, Baldwin added.

“Students often feel pressure to follow a perfectly mapped-out plan, but Wilson’s story shows that success can come from unexpected directions,” Baldwin said. “Many students are still figuring out who they want to be and where they’re headed; her experience reminds us that confidence, creativity and a sense of humor can open doors you never anticipated.”

The event is open to students, faculty, staff and members of the community.

���Ҵ�ý�ƽ������ the Distinguished Speakers Board

The��Distinguished Speakers Board’s mission is to cultivate a diversity of thought in the student body and the surrounding community by bringing speakers who engage and challenge society through their actions and ideas. Ultimately, DSB strives to create a more thoughtful and aware campus and community.

The board, composed entirely of ���Ҵ�ý�ƽ������ students, works to connect the campus with global voices across culture, politics, science, the arts and more. Past speakers have included Anderson Cooper, Trevor Noah, Garry Kasparov, Hank Green, Chloe Kim, Jennette McCurdy and Giancarlo Esposito. Each event provides students, faculty, staff and the Boulder community the chance to engage in conversations that expand perspectives and inspire action.��
