Sandra Valls Plays Seattle's Theatre Off Jackson
EDGE READ TIME: 1 MIN.
On Saturday, June 13, lesbian Latina comedian Sandra Valls presents "Valls to the Wall," a stand-up special. Voted one of the top ten lesbian comics in the country, Valls unapologetically takes the road less traveled, celebrates her sexuality and steps up to the front lines, entertaining and educating folks through laughter and plenty of Pride!
Valls is a brash, high-energy, smart and outrageously funny comedian. Voted by Latina Magazine as one of the Top 33 Bad Ass Comics with Latin Roots, Valls is used to performing to standing room only, sold-out crowds across the country. She'll make you laugh til your face hurts with her frank, no-holds-barred comedic genius!
Valls ignites the stage with powerful, electric performances in two hit Showtime comedy specials, "The Latin Divas of Comedy," nominated for an Alma Award, and "Pride: LGBT Comedy Slam!" hosted by Bruce Vilanch. Both are available for viewing on Hulu.com.
In a time when gays and lesbians in the U.S. are still struggling and fighting for equality, Valls celebrates her sexuality. So it comes as no surprise that she was voted one of Curve Magazine's Top 10 Funniest Lesbian Comics, and Top 10 Faces to Watch in 2010 by Diva Magazine. More recently, Valls was voted one of Go Magazine's Top 100 Women We Love.
"Valls to the Wall" plays at 8 p.m. at June 13 at Seattle's Theatre Off Jackson, 409 7th Ave. S. in Seattle. Tickets are $15-20. For information or tickets, visit http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/1620975
