Our favorites are back at Kings Theatre Brooklyn with some of their favorite stand-up comedians, Rory Scovel, Solomon Georgio, Bowen Yan, Jamie Lee, and Pat Brown. This season will even include celebrity guests Lupita Nyong’o (Black Panther, Oscar winner for 12 Years a Slave), Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Janet Mock (Surpassing Certainty), Lizzo (Coconut Oil), and Keegan-Michael Key(Key & Peele).
