Stand-up comedy in the Dominican Republic is alive and well. A report in Listin Diario says that while Carlos Sanchez around 15 years ago pioneered stand-up comedy here, today he has inspired many new emerging comedians. These comedians are taking advantage of social media to spread their laughs. And they have their own Comedy Club, a National District location where patrons can be ensured of an evening of laughs. The comedians each have their unique style. Many use irony, tell of day-to-day occurrences, use black humor, make fun of government, society, culture, values, customs and even of themselves.
Listin Diario mentions emerging comedians José Delgado (Yodel), Starlin Ramírez, Miguel de la Cruz, David (Melaza) and Elías Serrulle as part of the new generation of comedians that perform live for audience.
Comedy Club is located on the first floor of Plaza Bolera on Av. Abraham Lincoln.
