Why this festival?

Los Angeles needs a reputable Comedy Festival

Currently, Los Angeles, the center of the American film and television industry, needs a reputable comedy festival where industry members can discover comedic talent from all over the world. Today, talent managers, agents, and development executives have to trek to remote locations like Indiana or cross national borders to Montreal if they want to see the next Kevin Hart or Ali Wong.
