    Life World 563 Johnson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY, United States

    Stand Up and Clown @ Netflix Is a Joke (in LA)

    May 4 @ 9:45 pm - 11:30 pm
    The Elysian 1944 Riverside Drive, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Chad Damiani is the last true artist in LA. That’s why he’s waging a one-clown war against uninspired, corporatized comedy. Watch as Chad live-directs well-known comics through a full-blown clown show – complete with music, costumes and confounding surprises. As cruel as he is profound, Chad ruthlessly roasts the cast and pushes them to abandon their intellect and pursue their dumbest impulses. Will they embrace the joy of suffering and win over the audience? Or wither in the shadow of […]

    Two veterans navigate a realistic yet absurd system. Deshawn Ball (USMC) and Jamonté Williams (U.S. ARMY) draw from their service experiences to create a show filled with unhinged and absurd comedy, raw physicality, and pure hydration.
