It is our firm belief that when the different disciplines of comedy get cross-pollinated that some of the best, most boundary pushing comedy gets made. We also believe that Chad Damiani “live directing” (or ruthlessly roasting) people attempting clown is some of the funniest things we’ve ever seen.
Stand Up and Clown will combine all of that comedy goodness into a crucible of glorious failure and celebratory stupidity. Basically, Damiani, a veteran of the clowning and improv world will do his “live directing” of great stand-up comedians trying their hand at clown.
This first edition has a bunch of wondrous LA comedians that we can’t wait to see under Chad’s gun including:
- Babs Gray
- Morgan Jay
- Christina Catherine Martinez
- Kyle Mizono
- Jessy Morner-Ritt
- Ify Nwadiwe
- Anna Seregina
- Ahamed Weinberg
This inaugural Stand Up and Clown will happen at The Elysian on Mon. Feb. 7th at 9:30PM PT. Tickets are $12 right now and you really ought to get your tickets ASAP here.
