Modelface Comedy

Modelface Comedy is Asheville's mobile comedy club — a booking and production company, run by Melissa Lauren, that stages professional stand-up in rooms all over the city rather than in a venue of its own. Shows run five-plus nights a week at spots like Ginger's Revenge, The RAD Brew Co., Antidote at Chemist, Eda Rhyne Distilling Co., Wicked Weed Funkatorium, Noble Cider, French Broad River Brewery and The Cultura Room, pairing touring headliners with the best of the Southeast's local scene. Modelface also runs open mics and workshops and has produced nearly 20 comedy specials, including 'Joyride' with Bobcat Goldthwait and Dana Gould and 'Cult Classic' with Joe Zimmerman.
