Comedy King of Kane: My Uncle Is Funnier Than Yours
The Filipino American Student Association sa UW and The
Sisterhood of Pi Nu Iota Present:
Comedy King of Kane: My Uncle Is Funnier Than Yours
A Comedy Night!
We are proud to present our first ever Comedy Showcase. Worldwide, we find Filipino comedians, whether it be your Tito's at the annual New Years Party in your own homes to the pare at the comedy club. It is time to showcase that talent.
The evening will feature Rex Navarrete, a man who needs no introduction. But, to drive the point across...
from his website www.rexnaverrete.com:
[Rex] currently travels all over North America, touring cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and Hawaii doing his one-man show. In 2004, he brought his act to the peoples of Germany, Austria and Switzerland sharing the bill with renowned Philippine vocalist, Regine Velasquez. He has also had the distinction of becoming the most celebrated stand-up comic to perform to multiple sold-out shows in Manila, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia since 2002. He regularly returns to Manila which has become fertile ground for his style of stand-up, inspiring the growth of an emerging local stand-up comedy scene. His next plan of attack is to perform in the United Kingdom, where fans eagerly await his arrival.
Navarrete remains to be a one of the hardest working, relatively unknown American comedians today though he's performed alongside notable national headliners as George Lopez, DL Hughley, Paul Mooney, among others. He does plan to release a number of other comedy albums on CD and DVDs under his label for fans to enjoy. The future seems to only give him the chance to connect with a larger audience that is now finally getting the opportunity to experience the changing face of American stand-up comedy.
Opening for Rex will be our local FASA Last Comic Standing Champions (TBA). Come on out to UW, laugh, and support these rising talents!
