Laugh Luau Comedy Show

A real lineup walks into a kava bar, and no, that's not the setup, it's Laugh Luau on July 3rd. Three touring comics, one downtown room, and the only thing on tap won't give you a hangover.

Headlining: Anthony Crawford. A crowd favorite ever since he lost a bet in 1998, the High Point, NC native (now repping Denver) has turned dumb thoughts and high-energy storytelling into 60-plus festivals and stage time with everyone from Sinbad to Dave Chappelle. If you've laughed at a comedy show in the last decade, statistically he was probably nearby.

Featuring: C Brennan. Colorado's own producer, host, and co-founder of half the showcases you've already heard of (Do It For The Laughs, Creamy Comedy, Manitou Comedy Fest). She's all charm until she isn't, with razor-sharp takes on patriarchy, conservative hypocrisy, and the exes who earned their spot in the set. New Faces, Fort's Funniest, Madison Comedy Week, Front Range Funny Fest, she's been on the lists. Catch her before the premiere of her upcoming, entirely fictional film Save The Last Open Mic.

Guest Hosting: David Gamble. Nationally touring, seen at the Devil's Cup Comedy Festival and on Kill Tony. No rambling, no soapbox, no hot takes to win you over, just punchline after punchline, dark but never mean. He gets in, gets the laughs, gets out.

All going down at Ohana Kava Bar Downtown, where the drinks are alcohol-free and the comedy isn't watered down. Come for the show, stay for the kava, skip the hangover.
