Comedy as a Second Language brings live hilarious stand-up comedy of immigrant and first generation comedians. Celebrate with us Hispanic Heritage Month for a fun time as our comics  share stories and jokes of their lives in a new country, immigrant parents' struggles, identity crisis, and more!  

Experience this special event in person, at a socially safe distance! Masks are required.


About Improbable Comedy

Founded by social-worker-turned-comedy-producer Kim Levone, Improbable Comedy has hosted more than 100 shows in local venues around the DMV. The goal has been to transform the industry by giving the mic to hilarious comedians who have been underrepresented on stage.  We aim to book more women, LBGTQ+, BIPOC, and immigrant comedians as well as performers with disabilities. 

Since our first show at Vicino's restaurant in 2012, we have brought big laughs to theatres, bars, swanky clubs, and people's homes. Just before the pandemic, we had regular shows at Busboys & Poets, Joe's Movement Emporium, and American Legion Post 41 as well as bigger events at the Silver Spring Black Box and Union Stage.  

In March 2020, we moved almost exclusively to Zoom and now present our live shows virtually - several shows per month. While we can't wait to get back to live, in-person comedy, we have found success online and still work hard to make sure everyone has a great time.
