Come out and get your ribs tickled, massage your funny bone, slap a knee or two. Because LAUGHTER is an act of resistance!

About the Comedians:
Host - Scott Hall: Scott is a local DC comedian & podcaster with a passion for making people laugh. A frequent host at the Tysons Comedy Cellar showcases, Scott’s laid back and conversational style always make for a fun show. In his spare time he plays with his old dog and posts pictures of him on social media for attention.
Sofia Javed: Sofia Javed can make at least one person laugh. She honed her skills on unsuspecting co-workers and metro riders for an undisclosed amount of time before hitting the stage as a comedian last year. She delivers tightly-worded, thought-provoking jokes around the DC-area and has also performed in Seattle, Chicago, and New York. Sofia’s comedy is inspired by her life as a woman of color in America and her career as a cubicle bureaucrat. She enjoys steak.
Al Williams: Born and raised in Cleveland, Oh. Al Williams is a NY comic that got his start in Washington D.C. where he performed regularly at various local hotspots including The Bier Baron Tavern, Big Hunt, and Tysons Comedy Cellar.

He's been featured at festivals such as Burbank, Cape Fear, and Whiskey Bear. Al's sharp, honest writing and energetic delivery are not to be missed.
Liz Barlow: Liz Barlow is a comic/ writer from Virginia Beach. She's been seen on VA area funny Bones and Zanies. If she's not being funny, she's probably tutoring at a trap house.
