This year, the Magic City Casino showcased some of the hardest working comedians on their stage to be titled the Miami Ultimate Comedian 2017! What an incredible evening of comedy in Miami along with a large attendance and a line up of comedians competing for the grand $5,000 prize.
What makes this event so great, other than the massive audience, is knowing each comic only has 3 minutes to put their best material in front of them to advance to the next round.
The entire show is produced with photography and recordings that expresses the comedians personalities and opinions of each other. Making the competition even more fierce backstage.
The ending of the competition was on the edge of the seat because the three finalists were all great: Carl Rimi, Angla Nacca, and Freddy Stebbins.
However, this years Ultimate Comedian Title was given to Freddy Stebbins. One of the best comics we have! Well deserved!
Over the years, Freddy was one of the few bookers that put me up often on his stages when I was getting started in Comedy. Always a great guy, full of energy and characters.
Freddy is what Miami Comedy is all about, easy going and entertaining. You can catch Freddy working on his act weekly at Taurus at the Grove in Coconut Grove. You can also see some of the comics featured on this years Miami Ultimate Comedian.
After the competition, a special appearance was made by Nationally touring comedian Carlos Mencia!
Miami Ultimate Comedian competition places a stake on our comedy scene to point out that our city does have to offer plenty of talent that work on making you laugh. And offers a great comedy appearance to headline the event.
