Week 2: Comedy Underground
The sixteen comics of Preliminary Week Two of the 39th Annual Seattle International Comedy Competition began their chase to earn their spot in the Semi-Finals with a show at the Comedy Underground in Seattle’s Pioneer Square. They have five shows to make the top 5 for the week.
Tonight was a TV clean night and the comics faced a room with talent scouts who come from all over to see emerging comedy talent.
Taking top honors for the night was Nashua, New Hampshire’s Drew Dunn, followed closely by Los Angeles’ Isak Allen and London’s Will Mars.
Top Five Comics:
- Drew Dunn – Nashua
- Isak Allen – Los Angeles
- Will Mars – London
- Saku Yanagawa – Tokyo
- Phillip Kopczynski – Spokane
Next up: Wednesday night we face our post-election hangovers with a show at the Whidbey Island Center for the Arts in Langley.
