After you watch The Awkward Comedy Show on Comedy Central this April, come to Comix on May 3rd to see the cast perform live at the DVD release party! Not only will you see the special's director/producer/headliner Victor Varnado and the rest of the gang, but we’ve also got special surprise guests, an afterparty DJ'ed by hip-hop legend Prince Paul, and DVDs with over an hour of extra footage for sale.
"The Awkward Comedy Show" is a collective that showcases stereotype-shattering African-American comedians of a different hue; comedians who are more likely to talk about video games than booty; comedians who are more interested in Simon & Garfunkel than Smith & Wesson; comedians who are likely to drop The N-Word - if that word is "Nerdy."
The lineup:
Host Marina Franklin - Comedy Central, The Jay Leno Show
Victor Varnado - from the movies End of Days and The Adventures of Pluto Nash, and the TV shows Late Night with Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Hannibal Buress - Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, writer for Saturday Night Live
Baron Vaughn - star of USA's new show, Facing Kate
Eric Andre- Comedy Central, Curb Your Enthusiasm
MONDAY, MAY 3rd @ 7:30PM
Afterparty at 9pm with drink specials!
