About

Laughing Stock is our way of celebrating and supporting Central Florida comedy, and the many different people who make it. One night puts different voices and styles of humor on the same stage, from storytellers to observational comics to comics who draw on family, culture and where they come from. Come as you are, and you will find something that makes you laugh.

Lee Siler and The Sascha started Laughing Stock Comedy in April 2025 to give comedians stage time, especially the ones still working on their craft. That is still part of what we do, and we like having newer voices on the bill.

Today those newer voices share the stage with experienced, professional comics. Our first special event, LaughaPalooza in September 2026, was headlined by actor and comedian Dean Napolitano, with features from James Yon, host of The Lowdown on SLING TV, and Carmen Vallone, who has two specials on Dry Bar Comedy.

More than 80 comedians have performed in more than 30 shows, ages 20 to 75, from many backgrounds and multiple nationalities.
