About this Event
Colombian-American stand-up comedian Oscar Collazos shares his experience of coming to the United States at the young age of 7 and all the trauma it caused in a hilarious comedy show titled Growing Up Colombian. The stories he shares about adjusting to a new world and trying to fit into American society have had audiences bent over in laughter for years.
Oscar, who was born in Cali Valle Del Cauca, began his comedy career when he was an intern at Late Night with Conan O’Brien at NBC’s Rockefeller Studios in New York City in 2001. Since then, he has pounded the pavement becoming one of the funniest stand-up comedians under radar. From the legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem, NYC, to the high seas on cruise ships to comedy clubs and theaters, you can find Oscar carefully walking the line of discomfort and laughter. Oscar is the founder of the comedy group Hilarious Colombian Americans - which showcases the top Colombian and Colombian-American comedic talent. In 2022, he organized a 25 city tour which was highlighted by their appearance at the New York Comedy Festival. This show is in English with some Spanish and for everyone to enjoy - not just Colombians. You can follow Oscar across all social media platforms at @colombiancomic
