FEATURED COMEDIANS:
For some Americans — those who support a travel ban, a wall along the Mexican border and increased restrictions on refugees, all while holding on to the ridiculous belief that the world’s 1.8 billion Muslim hate America, despite the fact that it’s home to nearly 3.5 million of us — that statement probably inspires fear.
Join us for the night of Muslim Funny Fest. It’s our clean comedy show of the festival with an amazing line up of comedians:
