Tony Award-Winner John Lloyd Young And More Announced At Feinstein's In Carmel

Feinstein's at Hotel Carmichael in Carmel hosts great talent each and every month.

The month of May starts out with amazing talent – including a debut comedy show, the return of a local Hoosier favorite, and a Tony and Grammy award-winning Broadway performer.

It's Comedy Night at Feinsteins!

NOW THAT IS FUNNY debuts with some great comedians from Chicago - Susana Rodriguez, AJ Leidig and Abi Sanchez. Chicago is a breeding ground for some of the biggest names in comedy. So, plan to join the folks at Feinstein's on Thursday, May 2, to enjoy some of the best in comedy from the Windy City.  

Susana Rodriguez is a Mexican/American comic who bases most of her comedy on her not looking Mexican and her strict church upbringing. In her short time as a comedian, she has had the privilege of performing at the Laugh Factory, Hobart Art Theater, Center for Performing Arts, Vittum Theater, Mikey O Show, Second City and Patti Vazquez and Friends. She's opened/hosted for Bret Ernst and Pat Tomasulo. Along with being a comedian, she enjoys producing national acts and Chicagoland Stand-up Comedy at Hobart Art Theater. She also produces Chicagoland Comedy on the Course at Orchard Valley Golf Course.

AJ Leidig started making videos online during college and quickly developed a following of over 100,000 on various social media apps. Now he uses the same vulnerability and story-telling ability on stages across the country. AJ has performed at clubs including Laugh Factory Chicago, the Milwaukee Improv and the Chicago Improv. He has opened for Ben Palmer, Mark Viera and many more.

Abi Sanchez is a dynamic stand-up comedy force in Chicago. Abi hit the stand-up comedy scene in 2010 and hasn't stopped since. He has headlined at Zanies and Laugh Factory and performs all over the city, but his career hits more than Chicago. He's the winner of HBO Latino Stand-up Comedy Contest (2020). He was also selected to perform at Kevin Hart's LOL Network as part of the prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal.

Join us for a night of laughs, drinks, stories and more laughs.
