For 7 seasons, Coming To The Stage has been a launch pad for up-and-coming stand-up comedians who jumped at the chance to “come to the stage” and showcase their talents in front of a live studio audience at the world famous Cisco Stage in Burbank, CA. The series, which premiered on Hulu for seasons 1-5 and Pluto TVfor seasons 6-7, will hit it’s landmark 60thepisode with the finale of season 10 and surpass Comedy Central’s iconic stand-up comedy series, Premium Blend, in total seasons. George Wallace, Tom Green, andAndy Kindler have hosted previous seasons. Coming To The Stage has helped catapult the careers of many respected comedians such as Rell Battle (Key and Peele, Jeff Ross presents Roast Battle, Superior Donuts), James Davis (Wild N Out, Hood Adjacent with James Davis, Real Husbands of Hollywood),Rhea Butcher (Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Last Comic Standing, Harmontown), Preacher Lawson (America’s Got Talent),Matthew Broussard (This Week at The Comedy Cellar, Comedy Central’s The Half Hour, @Midnight),J.R. DeGuzman (Acting Out, Harry), and Josh Fadem (Better Call Saul, Twin Peaks(2017), 30 Rock).
“I love stand-up comedy, whether I’m playing 2000 people in a theater in Iceland or 90 people in a bowling alley in Akron, so when Comedy Dynamics asked me to host, I jumped at the chance….mainly because it’s not in a bowling alley,” said Jamie Kennedy.
Additionally, Out On Stage, a six-episode spinoff was released in 2018 and showcased up and coming LGBTQ stand-up comedians.
“Coming To The Stage has been a labor of love for our team and it was definitely a celebratory moment when we heard it had been picked up for 3 more seasons! ” said Brian Volk-Weiss, CEO of Comedy Dynamics.
