Canton Comedy Boom and Arcadia Grill Present: Joe Briggs and Leyla Ingalls

Canton Comedy Boom and Arcadia Grill Present: Joe Briggs and Leyla Ingalls at Patina Arts Centre on Saturday Dec 14th!

Joe Briggs is a Cleveland-based comic who performs regularly at Hilarities and Impostors comedy clubs. In 2023, he won Best Comedian, Best Sketch Performer, Best Sketch Group, and the Performer’s Award at the Cleveland Comedy Awards. He’s performed with Kyle Kinane, Brenden Eyre, and Joe List, just to name a few. Joe also performed in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with the sketch group, Flamingo City.

He's a member of Stepdads of Galway, Cleveland’s loudest semi-traditional Irish band. He once performed an entire show about a local grocery store chain, he is afraid of people who know what they want without looking at the menu first, and he is very excited and nervous to meet you!

Leyla Ingalls is known for her deceivingly innocent demeanor paired with clever joke writing and absurdist stances. With a wholesome grin, she delivers not-so-wholesome jokes!

After performing on the hit podcast, K*ll Tony, Leyla has amassed a following online leading to millions of views. She’s a regular at The Attic comedy club in Columbus Ohio, FunnyBone comedy club in Dayton Ohio and Don’t Tell Comedy shows across the midwest! Leyla has opened for Joe Gatto of Impractical Jokers, and Uncle Lazer of K*ll Tony.

She has performed alongside Theo Von, Kam Patterson, and Joey Diaz. She received the title “Rookie of the Year” for stand-up her first year in the game by Columbus Underground.

As stated by Leyla’s biggest comedy inspiration, professional boxer Muhammad Ali, “float like a butterfly, zing like a bee,” she reports “I think he said that…I don’t know, I don’t watch baseball.”

Cleveland-based performer Mike Strenk will be opening for Joe and Leyla. Mike has performed in the Edinburgh Fringe Comedy Festival, the Cleveland Comedy Fest, and the Columbus Comedy Fest. Mike is a regular at Impostors Comedy Club in Cleveland and he's performed at clubs all over Ohio.  

As always, the Patina art gallery and studios will be open for viewing and we encourage you to check out our downtown Canton page for a list of bars, restaurants, and shops within walking distance of the show!
