ABOUT COMEDY SOUTH
Comedy South is Carrollton's underground comedy movement — a platform for raw, unfiltered voices and next-generation comedians. From open mic nights to headliner showcases, we bring the heat to the stage and the screen.
Our new comedy venue at 135 Leroy Childs St is built for the next generation of comics. We help upcoming comedians get real exposure through high-end video filming of small comedy specials — giving rising talent the same cinematic production quality as the pros. Every set is captured in studio-grade audio and multi-camera video, then cut and color-corrected for broadcast.
Whether you're a first-timer working up the nerve to grab the mic or a headliner polishing the punchline, Comedy South is where the stage belongs to you. Come down, take a seat, and let the laughs roll.
