Writer, actor, comedian and winning alum of the long-running Last Comic Standing reality competition, Felipe Esparza is a funnyman who’s incredibly honest and forthcoming about his troubled early life in his stand up sets as well as in his main biography. Born in Sinaloa, Mexico, Esparza and his family moved to Boyle Heights where he developed substance abuse problems and became a teenage father. Nevertheless, the shaggy-haired Esparza pursued comedy and used it as a space to tell stories of his drug-addled, unbelievable life. Now with multiple Netflix specials, a popular comedy podcast and a sitcom on the way, Esparza’s current tour will allow him to expand on his humorously told anecdotes on an intimate level.
