You can’t spell “laugh” without “LA” (or “ugh”…). Introducing a new digital series from the L.A. Times: “Jokes On L.A.” It’s — well, it’s exactly what it sounds like:
#JokesOnLA .
😂 In this episode, we spotlight the comics of
@laughingstock_la :
@itsliarich @seanhamrin @celinekuk @jonathan.adam.dunn @notallinfluencers @jennmarsala @cee_everything &
@lizpollack
You might have seen them perform at their sell-out Saturday night show at the
@lyrichyperion in Silver Lake or their back-to-back month-long sellout runs at the 2022 and 2023
#EdinburghFringe Festivals. You can catch ‘em later this Summer on their upcoming tour of the UK and collaboration with
@donttellcomedyparis — or at their last U.S. show pre-tour, Saturday June 29th at the
@lyrichyperion .
But more than buzz or individual success, Laughing Stock founders and producers Charley Lanyon and Jennifer Marsala say that their comedy collective “represents a growing movement that goes to the heart of what is wrong with the notoriously toxic stand-up scene.”
“Instead of putting on traditional comedy shows, we have modeled ourselves on historic artistic collectives,” and fostered a sense of community and collaboration through writing groups and annual retreats, “where ideas and punchlines are shared freely— all in the spirit of community and mutual support.”
