    The East Coast Comes to Comedy Night
    Stephanie Blum

    We're getting a little East Coast flavor for our February 8 Comedy Night. Stephanie Blum, winner of New York's Funniest Teacher Contest and the Ladies of Laughter Funniest Female Competition of Madison Square Garden, will perform at TWCVV on Monday, February 8 at 7pm.

    Don't miss this Funny Mom who refers to herself as "Ray Romano's Jewish sister from Brooklyn." RSVP today at 805.379.4777.

    Check out what Back Stage Magazine says about Stephanie:

    "She wowed and won the crowd with a fun, family-oriented and refreshingly G-rated routine that included jokes on the trials and tribulations of motherhood, wifedom, in-laws and coping with her unique and wacky family."
