South Coast Stand-Up Comedy

This isn’t just another comedy night at the Alcazar… this is the Anniversary Gala—and it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest, most unforgettable nights the theatre has ever hosted.

On Saturday, April 25, we’re celebrating the Alcazar in true style with a blown-out, star-studded comedy event featuring more comics, more energy, and more surprises than your typical show. This is a one-night-only celebration of laughter, history, and the incredible audiences who’ve kept this place thriving.

And because a night like this deserves a lineup that delivers, we’re bringing in a stacked roster of killers, including the return of crowd favorites Lachlan Patterson and Omar Covarrubias—two comics who’ve absolutely lit up the Alcazar stage in the past and are back to help make this anniversary night legendary.

Joining them for this special gala:

Roman Spinale – A nationally touring comedian who has performed at top clubs and festivals across the country, including regular appearances at premier California comedy venues.

Sarah Halstead – Seen performing at major comedy clubs throughout the West Coast, with festival appearances and a growing presence on the national stand-up circuit.

Larry Omaha – A veteran headliner who has performed in clubs and theaters nationwide, sharing stages with top comedians and entertaining audiences for decades.

Matt Fulchiron – As seen on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and Comedy Central, Matt is a nationally touring headliner known for his standout TV appearances and festival performances.

Lachlan Patterson – A finalist on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, with appearances on The Tonight Show, Comedy Central, and major comedy festivals including Montreal’s Just For Laughs.

Omar Covarrubias – Featured on HBO Latino and seen at top comedy festivals and clubs across the country, Omar is a nationally touring comedian with a strong and growing national profile.

This is not your standard lineup—this is a deep bench of heavy hitters, all on one show, all bringing their best for a night that’s meant to stand out.

Expect a packed house, a buzzing crowd, and that rare “you had to be there” atmosphere that only happens when everything comes together just right.

One night only. A historic stage. A truly stacked lineup.

Come celebrate Alcazar's 98th anniversary the way it deserves—with a comedy gala that goes bigger, louder, and funnier than ever.
