OUR 1ST ZOOM SHOW WAS FUEGO!

Latinx Online Comedy

OUR 1ST ZOOM SHOW WAS FUEGO!

Latinx Online Comedy

When life gives you a worldwide pandemic- well you just adapt! I never thought we would a) do a live comedy show online and b) actually have people like it! But we did both on our first live Zoom show!

We’re still feeling all the feels from our first online live comedy show- ¡The Still On Lockdown Show!  on August 1st, 2020. You didn’t even have to get dressed! The online Zoom room was over the top fuego 🔥 and it was an EXTRA loca night of comedy from your favorite Latina/Latinx comedians and our honorary #locas4life.  A special thank you to our performers, and event guests for their laughter and interaction. You really made our first online show a success!

To all of our Loca fans who have come to see our show again and brought someone new…or to our newcomers…we’re so happy to have had you at the show! We couldn’t have done it without our LOCA performers. Please follow them on social media so you can see their next performance!
