Kathy Griffin & The Best of Comedy Central Hit South Beach This Weekend
Cover your virgin ears, as the South Beach Comedy Festival is in Miami this week. The party started Wednesday with performances that included shows by Mo Mendel and Louis C.K., shown above, and will continue through the weekend at various theaters around town. There will also be a live outdoor stage on Lincoln Road for “up and coming” talent.
The highlight of the weekend will be Saturday performances by D-List star and gay icon Kathy Griffin, whose show was so popular the festival added a second performance on Saturday night. Additional performers include Dave Attell, Louis CK, Jeff Dunham, Susie Essman, Andres Lopez, Jeffrey Ross, Katt Williams, and others. The winner of BIG 105.9FM’s “The Paul & Young Ron
Show” contest “So You Think You Are Funny” will also perform sometime this week.
The event is produced by Comedy Central, and the best of the best of the performances will be rebroadcast later this year. The William Morris Agency is also a sponsor, so they will presumably have agents around South Beach looking for talent. For more information check out www.southbeachcomedyfestival.com.
