February 15th - Chris Estrada and Friends Comedy Show!
Chris Estrada is an actor, comedian, and writer from South Central and Inglewood, known for his sharp wit and unique perspective shaped by his upbringing. He stars in and co-created the hit Hulu comedy series This Fool and was named one of LA’s comedians to watch by Time Out LA in 2018. His short film, 5th of July, was an official selection at the New York Latino Film Festival and the LA Independent Filmmakers Showcase Film Festival.
Shapel Lacey is a Los Angeles-based comedian from Mesa, Arizona, whose unique voice blends his punk rock roots, competitive cheerleading background, and personal experiences, including being adopted by a Caucasian family at 15. After discovering stand-up through a dare while cheerleading at the University of Louisville, he left college to pursue comedy full-time, eventually performing alongside Bill Burr, Hannibal Buress, and Brendan Schaub. In 2019, Shapel was named a "New Face" at the prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival and now headlines clubs nationwide.
Joel Jimenez is a comedian who was born and raised in Los Angeles. His stand up is inspired by his experiences growing up and by his daily life in the city. From growing up with a mechanic father to experimenting with questionable substances and innovative ways of self love, Joel is able to express himself with a wit and cleverness that is engaging, to say the least. He can be seen performing most often at The World Famous Comedy Store.
