SUMMARY:NYE Comedy with Caleb Synan
DESCRIPTION:Modelface Comedy brings you the best comedians from all over the country. This week we have Caleb Synan from Los Angeles for a NYE show! \nCaleb Synan is one of the hottest young comics in the country. (Funny AND good looking!) His unique background as a preacher’s kid from a small southern town gives him the ability to relate to any and every crowd — even though he’s a big old millennial who lives in LA. Want proof? He’s performed on CONAN (twice!)\, Last Comic Standing (once!)\, and his first Comedy Central special “30” in 2022 (You can watch it on YouTube!) \nHe’s also entertained our troops in South Korea and Japan. What a guy! It’s no wonder he won the title of “Wittiest” in Franklin County High School’s 2009 Yearbook. He even wrote this bio himself. And he’ll have a margarita with you if you play your cards right. \nages 18+\nDoors at 6:30pm\, show at 7pm \nTickets\n$20 advance\, $25 day of\n$28 premium seating (guaranteed table seating in the front three rows)
