Comedians with Criminal Records (2022)

Description

Crime is no laughing matter in San Francisco... unless it's Comedians with Criminal Records - a unique showcase of professional comics who’ve had troubles with the law in the past. This may be the only show in America where if you don’t laugh, you might get stabbed (just kidding… we hope).

In addition to an hilarious comedy set, you'll also hear the back-story of the comedian and the crime they committed and how stand-up comedy (hopefully) helped get them back on the straight and narrow.
