SUMMARY:*SOLD OUT* WDET Comedy Showcase: What's So Funny About Detroit?
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT\nThe WDET comedy showcase What’s So Funny About Detroit? is back! \nEach showcase brings a new set of six of the city’s funniest stand-up comedians to the stage on Thursday\, May 25 to the iconic Old Miami bar & backyard in the Cass Corridor / Midtown neighborhood of Detroit. \nWDET’s Ryan Patrick Hooper (host of CultureShift\, weekdays 12 – 2p) will serve as your host and curator of comedy for the evening as he introduces you to Detroit stand-up comics Diego Attanasio\, Nick Tenaglia\, Danielle Bentzley\, Gad Holland\, Andrew Yang and Melanie Hearn. \nThis event is a benefit for 101.9 WDET-FM Detroit’s NPR station. The cost of your tickets directly support WDET and will also go towards compensating the comedians\, who are critical members of the city’s independent comedy scene and larger performing arts community. \nTickets are $25 per person. Tickets can be purchased in advance online right here. Walk-up ticket sales at the venue are available *if the event is not sold out* \nDoors open at 6:30 p.m. \nShow starts promptly at 7:30 p.m. The show will be less than two hours long. \nThis show will be recorded live for a later airing on 101.9 WDET-FM Detroit’s NPR station. \nThis event will be held in the gorgeous backyard of the Old Miami. Please dress appropriately for the weather. In the event of rain or severe weather\, this event will be canceled and your tickets will be refunded. \nThis event is BRING YOUR OWN CHAIR and/or BLANKET. Think of it as a comedy picnic. A food truck will be on site selling food (Mizz Ruth’s Grill). Outside food and drink is not permitted. \nThis is an uncensored comedy event. The opinions and jokes of the comedians are completely their own and are not a reflection on WDET’s editorial standards. \n***MEET THE COMEDIANS*** \nDiego Attanasio \nDiego Attanasio is a Detroit based comedian originally from Peru who quickly wins over crowds with his quick wit\, likability\, and sarcastic observations. His rapid-fire delivery and onstage charisma make Diego one of the most notable acts in the midwest. Diego has performed stand-up in Alaska\, Hawaii\, and everywhere in between. He was a semi-finalist in the San Diego Comedy Fest and a finalist in the Laugh Your Bluegrass Off Comedy Fest. Additionally\, Diego performed at over 15 comedy festivals including the Cleveland Comedy Fest\, Memphis Comedy Fest\, and Idaho Laugh Fest. Diego has featured for Tig Notaro\, Todd Barry\, Robert Kelly\, Chris Porter\, Christopher Titus\, Nick Griffin\, Matt Braunger\, Jessica Kirson\, and Joe List. \nNick Tenaglia \nNicholas Tenaglia’s bio is written from the perspective of his three brothers. Rocco (eldest) says: “Nick was once robbed at gunpoint\, losing his beloved Chevy Equinox and (somehow) all of his clothes. His other car got exploded. Please pay to see him say funny things. He needs a win!” Tony (younger) says: “When Nick isn’t doing comedy\, he’s probably out betting on the ponies. We’d hate to see the guy go belly up\, but it seems to be inevitable if he doesn’t catch his breaks with the jokes soon… or at least hit the quadfecta on Captain Luck\, Screwy Two Boy\, Lady Winter & Jerry the rascal.” Vinnie (youngest) says: “Nick has really big heart.. Nick’s funny that’s cool too right?” \nDanielle Bentzley \nDanielle Bentzley has been performing stand up comedy since 2021. Quickly gaining traction in Michigan’s comedy scene with a dry delivery and hard-hitting punchlines\, Danielle has worked for The Independent Comedy Club\, The Detroit House of Comedy\, and Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle. When Danielle first heard that she could perform stand up in a castle\, she thought of her fear of water and the possibility of having to cross a moat. Driven by her love for stand up comedy\, Danielle faced the moat. She was relieved to find that it was thin and made of concrete. Danielle is a producer for 313 Comedy- a weekly comedy show featuring local and touring comics at the Detroit Shipping Company. She has opened for NYC’s Liz Miele and Matteo Lane as well as Michigan’s own\, Zach Martina. Come laugh with Dani about the ridiculousness that she encounters as she navigates sobriety in her mid-twenties. \nGad Holland \nGad Holland is one of the funniest comedians in Detroit. You’re gunna love him! \nAndrew Yang \nAndrew Yang is a comedian from Ann Arbor\, Michigan who runs shows at a punk rock venue in the Blind Pig and is a producer of the Tree Town Comedy Festival. Onstage\, Andrew charms audiences with his energetic personality and engrossing stories mostly at his own expense. He has been fortunate enough to work with a few of his comedy heroes including Beth Stelling\, Jackie Kashian\, and Joe Mande. Andrew has performed at the Motor City Comedy Festival\, Traverse City Comedy Festival\, in clubs all over the Midwest\, and hopefully soon for you too! \nMelanie Hearn \nMelanie is a fast rising talent on the Metro Detroit comedy scene\, is a native of The “D” and has always enjoyed entertaining people. As a graduate of Bill Bushart’s comedy class at the world famous Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle earlier this year\, Melanie has hit the ground running. She has been sweeping the scene as Winner of the “Jumpstart your Comedy Career Contest” at Joey’s Comedy Shop\, recent winner of The “Big Money Contest” at Laff Tracks Comedy Club and Finalist in the Woodward Comedy Competition. Such opportunities have afforded her the opportunity to emcee across the state and open for nationally known comedian Mike Bonner. In just a few short months Melanie has made her presence known around town for her versatile mix of realism and sass she’s just as nice as she is naughty. Melanie delivers a fun high energy show that really gets the crowd involved in her act. A local favorite across the Metro Detroit area\, Melanie continues to hone her skills at open mics across the state. Melanie can be seen performing at comedy clubs\, bars\, corporate events across the Midwest. \nWhat’s So Funny About Detroit? is supported by The Finnish Long Drink. \n \n
