About this Event
At just the young age of 21, Jayson Acevedo performed in six English-speaking stand-up comedy showcases in Paris, France as part of his affectionately dubbed "Latino in Paris" Comedy Tour. That same year in August, Acevedo received the opportunity of a lifetime by being invited to perform at the world's largest arts festival, The Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland. Now in his late 20s, Acevedo has yet to clean his room. Acevedo continues to perform regularly throughout the city of Chicago at notable venues such as The World Famous Laugh Factory, Zanies, Second City, The Comedy Bar, The Revival, House of Blues, UP Comedy Club, his nephews house, and more. Beyond Chicago, Acevedo has performed at The IceHouse (Pasadena), HaHa Comedy Club (LA), The Velveeta Room (Austin) & Harvey’s Comedy Club (Portland) to name just a few.
