Whoever has the audience laughing the hardest with their customized comedy set is the winner!
The countdown begins...now!

ABOUT THE COMEDIAN
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!
