Boston Comedy Night returns to West Acton Villageworks. The curator and host of our series is WES HAZARD — named one of “5 Boston Comedians to Watch” by Boston Globe Magazine and 2017 winner of a New England Emmy Award.

They have appeared on Comedy Central, The TV Guide Channel, Comedy Bang! Bang! Live!

We are so pleased to be bringing Wes and his gang back to the 'burbs for another season.
