Comedian Zach Martina at Shakesperear's Lower Level

Join us for a hilarious night of laughter with the one and only Zach Martina! Get ready to bust a gut as Zach takes the stage at Shakespeare's Lower Level in Kalamazoo, MI. This in-person event promises to be a riot, so grab your friends and get ready to laugh until your sides hurt. Don't miss out on this unforgettable night of comedy!

Zach Martina likes hot food sitting in his belly and the cooling sensation that a peppermint candy brings whilst taking a deep breath. Yes, he is a stand-up comedian but, if you’re reading this, you assumed that. Did you know that he is also a father, a husband, a 6 time cannon ball champion, AND a notary public? This is a guy with depth, a guy with layers.

His irritations with the inane instances of life & love have left him ranting and raving on stages across the world for over a decade. In that time, Zach has been featured at stand up festivals such as 10,000 Laughs, Limestone and Gilda’s Laughfest where he was named one of the “Best of the Midwest”. He, regularly, shares the stage with some of his favorite comedians including Rory Scovel, Chad Daniels, the Sklar Brother and Sean Patton (among others) and he has released two comedy albums (Skunkman & Not the Worst Dad) that debuted at number one on the comedy charts and are, regularly, spun on SiriusXM.

If the problem is “(Dark Jokes + Delightful Delivery) x Big Energy” then Zach Martina is your ANSWER. Come see for yourself! xoxo

He will be supported by local openers from the Michigan comedy scene.

Bob Fredericks

Originally the host of Standup or Shut up at the Lower Level Bob has worked with many world class comedians and top clubs throughout the Midwest. Organizing and producing shows at Shakespeare's since 2012 Bob is so very excited to bring comedy back to the Lower Level post apocalypse. Now a Single Dad, Bob relates to his audience with an absurdity in his observations that are off the wall, self deprecating and endearing. He loves to tell stories and make people laugh. During the pandemic he took on content creation, growing an audience around the world. Now he is ready to bring world class comedy back to Kalamazoo once again!

About the Show: This show is produced and Hosted by Bob Fredericks who worked with Shakespeare's Lower Level (2012-2020) to produce many Professional shows in Kalamazoo.
