El Campanil Theatre – Best Of SF Comedy Competition

FROM THE ORGANIZER:

The legendary #SanFranciscoStandUpComedyCompetition will return to El Campanil in a big way this year, starting on Saturday, January 15th, with performances by three past winners of the event and a recent runner-up.

Yes, all in one show, two recent champs, Ellis Rodriguez and Sterling Scott, hosted by another top finisher (and Pittsburg native), Johnny Steele, plus near-winner Gina Stahl-Haven. It doesn’t get any funnier than a show of this caliber.

Come out over Martin Luther King weekend to laugh at and with Best of the SF Comedy Competition. Then find out what else the Comedy Competition has in store for Antioch later in the year!

 

 

STERLING SCOTT is a rising star in the Canadian comedy scene and a crowd favourite.

ELLIS RODRIGUEZ is a stand-up comedian from Northern California who is known to be ‘hella funny’ and one of the the best Stand Ups on the scene. A U.S. Marine with a classic case of middle kid syndrome, he’s the funniest of 9 children raised by parents from Panama. It’s complicated. But Ellis uses the diversity of his life to establish rapport with anyone. His energy and charisma have made him a regular headliner at The Improv, Laugh’s Unlimited, and Tommy T’s to name a few.

If you’ve missed Ellis Rodriguez, you’re missing out. Lucky for you, he’s literally just getting started. Most recently Ellis was featured on Kevin Hart’s Comedy Central show ‘Hart of The City’. Winner of the San Francisco Comedy Competition, and the San Diego Comedy Festival.

Look for his comedy album ‘Go Be A Clown’ streaming everywhere. And his Weekday podcast The NOS.
