LAUGHING'S A GAS

Netflix and Live Nation will stage a week-long comedy festival in L.A. featuring performances by Amy Schumer, Dave Chappelle, David Letterman, Sebastian Maniscalco and others.

The Netflix Is A Joke Fest will be held 4/27-5/3 at 20 venues throughout Los Angeles. Closing night will include the inaugural edition of The Hall with Chappelle, Kevin Hart, Chris Rock, Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Jerry Seinfeld, Sarah Silverman, Wanda Sykes and others paying homage to George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Joan Rivers and Robin Williams. The show at The Ace Theater will be taped and streamed on Netflix later in May.

Eleven of the shows will be recorded and shown at a later date on Netflix. For a full list of events, click here. Tickets go on sale Friday.
