Almost ten years in the biz, our main act has sent countless crowds wheezing from laughter through his blend of black humor, relatable storytelling, and witty acoustic singing.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled is leaving crowds gasping for air in bellowing laughter. Forged from the hottest pits of, uhm, Mexico, Franco “El Diablo'' Escamilla is out for another round of his must-see performances on October 27! The famed comedian is closing in on ten years of live shows, having begun in 2014 with the Ríspida Rapsodia Regia tour. His last series, Gaby, concluded just last year and has further propelled him into the North American mainstream. This year, 2023, he announced a special ONE-NIGHT ONLY event at the Allstate Arena: Franco Escamilla’s Festival Latino de Comedia featuring Liss Pereira and Felipe Avello!
“Much better than expected, and I had high expectations! My wife and I laughed non-stop. We loved it. What makes his show very different is that he does not have a repertoire of jokes; he narrates everyday stories with his signature way of doing it, witty and very smart. You really cannot tell if his stories are made up or not, but he makes them feel very real!”
Voice actor. Musician. Businessman. Franco Escamilla can do it all, but what he does best is turn serious topics into hilarious standup material. Our headlining act is notorious for his biting black humor and sarcastic wit, but all-around, he’s a master in the art of storytelling standup. His fans can vouch for this with his quartet of widely lauded Netflix comedy specials "Welcome to the World," "For the Anecdote," "Comedians of the World," and "Eavesdropping." As the sprinkles to the ice cream sundaes that are his live shows, Escamilla treats his audiences to delightfully comical song bits with his trusty guitar.
Special guests Liss Pereira and Felipe Avello will open the show, warming the crowd up before the night’s main event. Pereira is an India Catalina Award-winning actress you’ll immediately recognize from her Netflix special “Reteniendo líquidos” and frequent collaborations with acclaimed director Fernando Ayllón. Avello, on the other hand, is a 20-year multimedia veteran in theater, music, film, and television. He is also notably a National Humor Award-winning performer graced with an irresistible on-stage charisma.
