Los Angeles magazine will present its Angels of Comedy Disaster Relief Benefit on Thursday February 13th 6:00 – 10:00pm at Engine Co. No. 28, one of the city’s oldest firehouses. All proceeds benefit Pasadena Community Foundation’s efforts to raise funds for victims of Los Angeles wildfires – overwhelmed first responders, and displaced families and animals. More than just being a donation the event is about coming together as a community to heal, laugh, and rebuild.
The evening will kick off with a networking cocktail hour from 6 to 7:15pm featuring beef and vegan Firehouse chili, cornbread, cocktails, beer, and wine. At 7:15, the magazine’s publisher, Chris Gialanella and evening host Sharon Fredrickson will deliver opening remarks.
The show launches at 7:30pm with Sharon Fredrickson guiding audience through a lineup of stand-up performances by some of LA’s funniest comedians, including Aida Rodriguez, Ashley Burgess, Carla Collins, Erik Rivera, Kim McVicar, Kwame Siegel, Renee Percy, Sandy Stec, Maxi Witrak, and Peter S. Kim.
The event will also honor Los Angeles first responders, sharing their inspiring stories and recognizing their heroism. Additional funds will be raised with a raffle offering once-in-a-lifetime prizes.
