Chad Performs his WIP clown show (and Kyle Does a Few Things)

Reckless Chad Reuben: ** is based on one of Chad’s most popular characters:
Reckless Chad Reuben was once the most dangerous comic in America. A massive celebrity who said and did whatever he wanted – and dared the world to stop him.
Eventually, they did.
But losing everything was the best thing to ever happen to Reckless. This isn’t a comeback special – it’s a comedy manifesto on how to grow and change. Can Reckless find new ways to make people laugh – and right the wrongs on his toxic past? Or is this dog just too old to learn how to fit into the modern world?
.....And now that that's done ^^, Kyle Mizono will do just a few things. While she doesn't consider herself a clown (clown adjacent), she will be working on clown stuff.
Chad Damiani has spent over a decade as one of the leaders and architects of LA’s current clown scene. He’s the creator/star of the STAND UP AND CLOWN – where he directs well-known stand-ups through their first clown show. He’s one-half of RORY AND CHAD WIN COMEDY TONIGHT – an immersive comedy experience he performs with comedian Rory Scovel. He’s an ensemble member in the international clown variety show STAMPTOWN – which features some of the best alt comics in the world. He’s also the leader of CLOWN ZOO – an all-star ensemble created during the pandemic that combines modern clown and theatrical mask work.
Chad has performed his solo clown pieces all over the country – often at traditional stand-up venues. He’s appeared in various TV shows and music videos, including AMERICA’S GOT TALENT, DAVE, and TBS’s upcoming reboot of JOE SCHMO. Chad is also a Blacklist-winning screenwriter and worked as an announcer for World Championship Wrestling (this was a very long time ago).
Kyle Mizono is clown adjacent. She’s been featured on NPR’s This American Life, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, Viceland and FreeForm. She also created the Comedy Central digital series called, “Girl Kyle”with director and frequent collaborator, Lizzy Born. She co-hosted the iHeart Radio podcast Truth Hounds for two seasons with her best friend, Anna Seregina.
