Modesto's Annual Comedy Competition

American Laughiti: Modesto's Annual Comedy Competition is the best way to end Graffiti summer! This show brings together six of the area's top comedians for an evening that celebrates comedy as an essential art form. Beyond mere entertainment, comedy today serves as a vital vehicle for social commentary, personal reflection, and collective joy. 

This competition isn't just about laughs—it's a showcase of comedic craftsmanship and creativity. Comedy isn't just entertainment—it's an art form that's essential in today's world, offering insights, catharsis, and connection through humor.
