March 27 Kava Comedy Kick Back Postponed until further notice. Stay healthy and we’ll hopefully see you next month.

Edgar Granados is a comedian from Venezuela who grew up in California. As an immigrant, his comedy pokes fun at the absurdities of every-day life from the outside looking in. He has performed in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; the Paname des Arts Cafe in Paris, France; and was featured in the infamously raunchy internationally touring late-night variety show, Stamptown, in London, England. @edder_rodriguezzzz Featured Friday Feb 28 @rootofhappiness Rancho Cordova... 8pm Free Show 18+ See more

Melissa McGillicuddy is a stand-up comedian based in Sacramento, California. As a newcomer to the scene in 2015, she won the Wildcard Competition at the Sacramento Comedy Festival. Since then, Melissa has opened for talented comedians such as Cameron Esposito, Rhea Butcher, and Vicki Barbolak. She has also performed at several comedy festivals including SF Sketchfest. Being an only (and super gay) child raised by a single mom in a conservative town, Melissa found she didn’t... always fit in, so she used humor as a way to try and connect with people. Her dry wit and unique perspective on life make her a hit with audiences everywhere. Melissa also co-produces the Moving Van Show, a monthly, secret pop-up comedy show, as well as Sacramento FemmeFest, the city's first all-female comedy festival. In 2019, Melissa was voted best comedian by the Sacramento News & Review. @meowlissamcg Featured Friday Feb 28 @rootofhappiness Rancho Cordova 8pm Free Show 18+

Is Sam Hochhalter actually two-time FIFA women’s World Cup champion Alex Morgan? We don’t know, we’ve just never seen them in the same place at the same time. When they aren’t burning defenders on the pitch, they’re onstage telling tightly crafted jokes about foliage and performing alarmingly accurate impressions of a 1600’s swashbuckler. They also host a weekly open mic on Thursdays at Stab Comedy Theater in Sacramento and can be heard interrupting fellow comedian David Samu...el on the Unmotivated Podcast, which is now streaming on all major platforms. @samhochhalter Featured Friday Jan 24 @rootofhappiness Rancho Cordova
