Modelface Comedy Presents Carmen Lagala
May 1 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$18
Modelface Comedy brings you the best comedians from all over the country. This week we have Carmen Lagala from NYC in Asheville!
Carmen Lagala masterfully blends silly and confessional humor with an approach that makes you feel like you’re pulling an all-nighter with a best friend. Carmen’s journey from a shy Vermont collegiate hall-of-fame athlete to a well-known New York City stand-up comedian is nothing short of inspiring.
After performing throughout the country for around 15 years, Carmen has developed a fearless approach to comedy. She tackles everything from current events to personal experiences, leaving no topic off limits.
Whether she’s speaking on awkward relationships, mental health, or coming out late in life as pansexual, Carmen brilliantly turns her vulnerabilities into laugh-out-loud material.
You may have seen her on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, from her viral Don’t Tell Comedy set, or in clubs and colleges around the country!
You can find her on Instagram & TikTok, and subscribe to her YouTube channel to catch her debut hour-long special which hit 100k views in its first two months!
PROJECTS
Carmen filmed her debut special, “Sweet Batch” in 2024 and released on it on her YouTube channel, SiriusXM, and all audio platforms. Subscribe to her YT channel CarmenLagalaComedy to watch this tightly packed hour on everything from making dog-fur mittens to a serial killer in her hometown!
Carmen has partnered with OnlyFansTV and has an account dedicated to bonus comedy and behind-the-scenes content. Subscribe on OF to CarmenLagala.
Carmen is a host of one of the longest running indie stand-up shows in the world, Comedians You Should Know. CYSK is every Wednesday at Gutter Bar in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She also hosts the wildly popular and whimsical Zoomies, a cat-filled comedy show every first Friday (and some special Mondays) at Brooklyn Cat Cafe.
