Want to see some of the best comics in California? The Barn at Meriam Park Events is having a night of pro comedy on Saturday, March 15th at 7:30pm!

Headliner Chad Opitz (LA)

Chad Opitz is a comic whose hilarious and unique perspectives make him an oft booked staple at Bay Area clubs and showcases. Veering between one-liners, short story jokes, and sometimes even song, Opitz' writing is as well-regarded as his character and performance work.

Chad has been a featured guest on the Doug Loves Movies Podcast and The Benson Interruption. He was a featured performer at the 2016-2024 San Francisco Sketchfests. Chad was the winner of Bay Area legend Jimmy Gunn's "Best Newcomer" award. He is a regular paid feature at Punch Line San Francisco and Sacramento, Cobb's Comedy Club as well as at Rooster T. Feathers Comedy Club and San Jose Improv. He's been invited to perform for High Plains Comedy Festival in Denver, Altercation Comedy Festival in Austin, TX. and headlined the B4UDie Comedy Festival in Anchorage, Alaska.

Chad has been featured in several short films and commercials, including Walgreens Red Nose Day to help end child poverty. He was cast as "young Francis Ford Coppola" for the 4th season of Amazon Prime's Goliath starring Billy Bob Thornton.

He's opened for Michelle Wolf, Melissa Villasenor, David Cross, Brian Posehn, Scott Thompson, Christopher Titus, Gad Elmaleh, ISMO, Rob Schneider, Neil Hamburger, Taylor Tomlinson, Tom Green, Bobcat Goldthwait, Brooks Wheelan, Steph Tolev, Caitlin Peluffo and many more.

Plus Josef Anolin (LA)

From Oakland, California currently living in Los Angeles, Josef has opened for the likes of Tom Segura, Whitney Cummings, and Michael Che. He likes telling irreverent stories based on his life and observations. He has an Android phone because he likes pissing you off with his green text bubbles.  

Plus Becky Lynn (Sac) 

With a dark, but charismatic style and dry, but engaging delivery, Becky Lynn has made herself one of the brightest young stars in the Northern California comedy scene opening for such heavy hitters as Jen Kirkman, Erica Rhodes, and Rhea Butcher.

A finalist in the 2017 Sacramento Comedy Competition, Becky covers a large range of topics including death, modern love, and the best way to help out at a kid's birthday party. She navigates her way through life uniquely and hilariously and in a way that translates perfectly to the stage.

Hosted by DNA (Chico).

DNA produced several thousand events in Chico. He is recording his first comedy album a few days after this show.

Another Mellow June

Another Mellow June is a new alt-pop duo based out of Chico, CA composed of seasoned songsters Katie Barrett (guitar, uke) and Karen Lindenberg (keys, guitar). Much as their moniker suggests, AMJ's repertoire and vibe evokes sunny bike rides through the oak-dotted, rolling hillsides of their Northern California hometown, or an afternoon of fun and laughter among friends. Drawing upon their mutually extensive musical experience, they weave an eclectic tapestry of tastefully stylized covers with rich and soulful harmonies for their audiences.
