ROUND TOWN
Four Comedians – One SWEET Night!
By Millie Drum
Hearts, chocolate, flowers, love
and affection…and taking a sweet,
funny look at life brings The Big
Laugh back to the Central Coast
on Valentines’ Day, Saturday, February
14.
The Big Laugh is truly a labor
of love for local comic and producer
Lizette Mizelle; celebrating
an exceptionally special Valentine’s
Day this year…
the 8th anniversary
of her show
and the 1st one
as Mrs. Dave
Mizelle Belmonte.
Lizette
and Dave were
married last year
Lizette Mizelle
in an amazingly, beautiful production
of their own. Lizette’s got a
talent, among so many, for finding
the funny side of life whether it’s
working out at the gym, cooking or
partaking of the world’s best, and
inviting the best comedians in the
business or taking the stage herself!
At 17, Lizette dodged the ID
check at an LA comedy club by
declaring she was a working come-
dian. Her foot was, literally, in the
door. Her courageous “stand up” to
the unexpected challenge of filling
a gap in the show started her career
as a comedienne and well-established
respected producer of The
Big Laugh. She’s opened for Jon
Lovitz, D.L. Hughley, Dana Carvey
and the hilarious Mrs. Hughes.
The Big Laugh comic line-up
Comedian Eric Schwartz, aka
Smooth-E, is an internet sensation
with millions of hits! Behind his
geeky façade lies a multi-talented
showman who delivers mind blowing
stand-up and musical comedy
with his physical antics, multi-cultural
satire, hilarious characters
and riotous laughter. Audiences
worldwide are following Smooth-
E’s manta to…SURRENDER TO
THE BLENDER.
Dave Burleigh is a Cal Poly graduate,
interned in the Sports Dept. at
KSBY and KCPR where Weird Al
Yankovic worked. While performing
multiple characters, voices and
impressions on the 2012 season of
America’s Got Talent, Dave became
a favorite of both judges and fans
Eric
Schwartz
Dave
Burleigh
Andrew
Kennedy
alike. Judge Howie Mandel complimented
Dave by saying, “Your impressions
were spot on!” Burleigh’s
seemingly laid back and easy going
style on stage is a humorous contrast
to his rather odd facial and
body expressions that are sure to
leave the audiences amazed and
impressed.
Bilingual entertainer Andrew
Kennedy is one of the most hysterical
comedians today.
Raised in South America,
the Caribbean and
Asia by a Colombian
mother and British
father, Andrew promotes
cultural diversity
through his comedy.
Based on his life and
comedy, Andrew developed,
produced and
starred in his very own television pilot
“Related by Marriage” for CBS.
His “Comedy Central Presents”
special was voted one of the network’s
Top 20. He’s performed
all over the world and at Lincoln
Center. With a Colombian mother,
English father and black great
grandmother, Andrew’s take on
the truth that is really stranger than
fiction is undeniably hilarious!
Centrally Grown will provide
organic chocolate dipped strawberries,
desserts and appetizers.
