Jamie Kennedy to Host Renewed Comedy Series COMING TO THE STAGE

Deadline reports that Coming To The Stage, a vehicle for up-and-coming comics, has been picked up for seasons 8-10 on Pluto TV.

Jamie KENNEDY will host the next three seasons. George Wallace, Tom Green, and Andy Kindler have hosted previous seasons.

Coming To The Stage has been a launch pad for young stand-up comedians to showcase their talents in front of a live studio audience at the Cisco Stage in Burbank, CA.

Coming To The Stage has helped the careers of Rell Battle (Key and Peele, Jeff Ross presents Roast Battle, Superior Donuts), James Davis (Wild N Out, Hood Adjacent with James Davis, Real Husbands of Hollywood), Rhea Butcher (Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Last Comic Standing, Harmontown), PREACHER Lawson (America's Got Talent), Matthew Broussard (This Week at The Comedy Cellar, Comedy Central's The Half Hour, @Midnight), J.R. DeGuzman (Acting Out, Harry), and Josh Fadem (Better Call Saul, TWIN PEAKS (2017), 30 Rock).

"I love stand-up comedy, whether I'm playing 2000 people in a theater in Iceland or 90 people in a bowling alley in Akron, so when Comedy Dynamics asked me to host, I jumped at the chance....mainly because it's not in a bowling alley," said Jamie Kennedy.

"Coming To The Stage has been a labor of love for our team and it was definitely a celebratory moment when we heard it had been picked up for three more seasons," said Brian Volk-Weiss, CEO of Comedy Dynamics.
