Felipe Esparza is a stand-up comedian and actor who has come a long way since winning NBC's "Last Comic Standing" in 2010. While that may have opened doors and helped build his fan base around the country, his hard work and focus in more recent years has brought him longevity. With three successful stand-up specials on Netflix and HBO, his "What's Up Fool? Podcast" holding steady as one of the top comedy podcasts for the last eight years, and his sold out tour dates all over the country, Felipe is now at a point where he is moving more into TV and film. He has been a recurring favorite on TV Shows such as "Superstore", "The Eric Andre Show", "Gentefied", and "Victor and Valentino", as well as appearing in films including "Guest House" with Pauly Shore, "7th & Union" with Omar Chaparro, "Daddy Daughter Trip" with Rob Schneider and "You People" with Eddie Murphy and Jonah Hill.
Felipe is currently on tour and working on his fourth stand-up special.
the show was awesome. he is super funny. it was wonderful to meet him. but in my email I was told I would get 2 vip laminated lanyards for the vip tickets I got. the box office said only the wrist band is what I get. was kinda looking forward to having that.
Not every comedian can be as good as their TV special when you see them live...and I even 'get it' when the comedian is RIFFING with the crowd...but SERIOUSLY, Felipe "phoned it in"on Saturday night in Seattle??!! None of his material seemed to flow...no big applause breaks...in fact, his biggest cheers only came when he would 'whoop whoop' about other Mexicans in the audience... The opening acts where so bad that a ton of folks got up outta their seats and went back to the bar in the back of the theater...and STAYED there even when Felipe came on... (Mind you, this bar is in the same room and directly behind the mix position)...so when that bar crowd lost interest in the show, all the JABBERING at the bar became for funny than the guys on stage. On that note, venue did very little to help dial the background noise, so then that racket became even more of a distraction. The staff team at STG is seemingly comprised most of mostly retirees, so I doubt 'crowd control' is even a topic at staff OPS meetings with this team??! If Felipe had been "ON"that night and was actually funny, then those folks that got up and went to the bar would come and sat back down. We love Felipe's humor, but I guess you can't HIT every night with every show...and on this tour, his armpits were in Seattle??!!
Probably one of the best stand ups! Laughed the whole 2 hours
My husband has never been to a comedy show and had been looking to see who was coming to our area. He said one of his favorite comedians is Felipe Esparza, so I bought tickets. I didn’t personally like the beginning of his set, but I figured I’d get into it. I didn’t. About 40 minutes into his set he started checking his phone. First I figured it was just to see where he was at in his bit in comparison to time left, but he checked it 2 more times after that! He was so over it he was checking his phone. He started razzing people in the front row, seemingly far off from what he had been doing on stage. The whole thing was real bizarre.
Such a great show. Couldn’t stop laughing. Opening acts all good.
Love him, so entertaining. If you get a chance see his show.
I was checking the time which is never a good sign - I hadn’t laughed for the last 20 minutes…
Great opening acts and even a better main act by Felipe Esparza! I laughed from the beginning to the end! He read his crowd and knew exactly how to engage with them! I'll definitely be on the lookout for another show by him!
i loved the show. thank you so much. i had the best time
FELIPE ESPARZA IS ONE OF THE BEST COMEDIANS AROUND. WE SEE HIM EVERY TIME HE IS IN OUR AREA. WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO DO A MEET AND GREET WITH HIM AND HE IS A WONDERFUL PERSON. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM AGAIN
