MARCH COMEDY MADNESS 2021: 64+ Comedians, 1 Champion.
Tipping our hat to the NCAA Basketball Tournament, comedians benefit the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation by going one-on-one in the 12th annual March Comedy Madness; a single elimination comedy competition refereed by show's originator Josh Filipowski. In the first LIVE round, two comedians perform their best minute of stand-up head-to-head and then the audience, by applause, decides the winner. As the field is narrowed down, the sets get longer and more hilarious, until the March Comedy Madness Champion is crowned!
