JAMES P. CONNOLLY
MURRAY VALERIANO – BRIAN McKENZIE – RACHEL BURCH
How do you follow the explosion of Lass Your Aff Off! comedy that occurred at Z Playhouse in Mission Viejo in March? You light another fuse and wait for a funny night of exciting entertainment to begin!
On Saturday April 13th we are proud to bring one of our all-time favorites to The Z, James P. Connolly, and you’re not going to want to miss the fun.
James attended Harvard University on a Marine Corps ROTC Scholarship. While serving in Desert Storm, he was ordered to write jokes for a Colonel. Arriving in Hollywood, he began to perform at LA’s major comedy venues and soon popped up on television, commercials and in small films. He has appeared on America’s Got Talent, Comedy Central, HBO, in the new Netflix series, “Larry Charles: Dangerous World of Comedy”, and on the Audible Audio Documentary, “Strong Ending”. Most recently James completed his Dry Bar comedy special.
James can be heard daily on SiriusXM Comedy Channels, has hosted “Live From Here” for National Lampoon XM Radio, and recorded a “Blue Collar Radio Comedy Concert” for SiriusXM, He produces an annual Veterans Day Comedy Show benefiting the Armed Services Arts Partnership (ASAP).
Joining James and making his first appearance at The Z is the very funny Murray Valeriano. Murray is an award-winning writer and comedian based in Los Angeles, California. He has performed in six different countries and has toured extensively in the US, either headlining comedy clubs or opening for some of comedy’s heaviest hitters including David Spade, Kevin Pollak, Darrell Hammond, Brad Garrett and the late, Robert Schimmel. Murray has been seen on Comedy Central, NBC, Amazon and countless commercials. He can be heard regularly on SiriusXM where he co-hosted Off the Cuff with Bill Engvall and Gary Brightwell for five years.
Also gracing our Lass Your Aff Off! stage in April will be Brian McKenzie. Brian can be seen performing regularly throughout a variety of OC & LA clubs. His low-key delivery, instant likability, and comedic observations, has made him an audience favorite wherever he performs.
Hosting this comedy extravaganza is the hilarious Rachel Burch! After a very long and successful career as an attorney, Rachel left the law completely to pursue other things although unsure what those things would be, but knew that she was not happy as an overworked lawyer. Fast forward to today, Rachel is the host of the very successful podcast “Love Before 100” and performs stand-up throughout the OC and LA.
This is going to be an amazing night of comedy, so please don’t miss it, and don’t attend alone. You’re going to need someone to help you up when you fall on the floor laughing.
