About

Comedy kingmaker Bob Sumner — co-creator of HBO’s Def Comedy Jam — invites you to experience the next wave of comedy greatness with The Rising Stars of Comedy: I’m in Love with Mary Jane Show. Curated by the legendary talent scout himself, this lineup brings together five firecracker comedians on the up and up — Anthony Oakes, Rio Paris, Mason King, Rashaun Reese and Apple Brown Betty. Each performer offers their own wild style, quick wit and unforgettable energy, setting the stage for a raw, real and ridiculously funny evening. They’ve cut their teeth in some of the best comedy clubs and festivals on the scene and have each been steadily building a buzz. Sumner knows talent when he sees it. Many of the most gifted comedians to grace the stage and screen worldwide have Sumner to thank for helping them up through the ranks. This includes Bill Bellamy, Mike Epps, Dave Chappelle, Sheryl Underwood, Jo Koy, Chris Tucker, Deon Cole, Bill Burr, Cedric the Entertainer and the late, great Bernie Mac. Among other roles, Sumner is also the Curator of Comedy at the iconic Apollo Theater in Harlem. Come vibe, laugh and fall head over heels for Mary Jane and the next big names in stand-up. With a special surprise DJ host, and a crowd ready to roll like in the Peppermint day, this is your front-row seat to the future of funny.
