Cheech Marin will host and Paul Rodriguez will be featured along with the rising stars
Erik Rivera, Marcella Arguello and Nick Guerra. Marin and Rodriguez have been
making audiences laugh all over the world for more than two decades. The two have
ties together, going back to the 1980’s when Rodriguez starred opposite Marin in
Marin’s 1987 movie Born In East LA. They teamed up again for the 2002 comedy
concert film "The Original Latin Kings of Comedy," which Rodriguez executive
produced. Currently, the two comedians, along with skateboarder/actor Paul Rodriguez,
Jr. announced the development of a single-camera comedy for NBC.
Paul Rodriguez’s multi-faceted career includes starring roles and featured
appearances in over 45 films and countless television series and comedy specials. He
is a life-long community activist and an accomplished writer, director/producer for
television, motion pictures and feature shows. Cheech Marin is best known as one
half of the hilariously irreverent duo Cheech and Chong, Cheech is a paradox in the
world of entertainment. He is an actor, director, writer, musician, humanitarian and art
collector. Since the mid-1980s, he has amassed a renowned private collection of
Chicano art, the largest in North America. He has appeared in over 20 films and has
been a sitcom regular, as well as having recurring and guest roles on television.
Since bursting onto the NYC comedy scene, Erik Rivera has become a favorite act at
comedy clubs, events and colleges throughout the country. A regular at NYC and LA
comedy clubs such as The Comedy Cellar, Comic Strip Live, Gotham Comedy Club,
and The Laugh Factory, Erik’s star is quickly rising! Rivera is steadily becoming a
familiar face on cable networks nationwide as he’s also appeared numerous times on
AXS TV, MTV, Comedy Central, TV Guide and NuVO TV. Marcella Arguello has
recently become a fan favorite on Comedy Central’s @midnight and will be featured on
an upcoming episode of The UCB Show on Seeso, as well as Tru TV’s Comedy
Knockout. Arguello was featured on Viceland’s Flophouse, and in 2015 on NBC’s Last
Call with Carson Daly. She has worked at The Improv Comedy Clubs all over the
country and is a regular at The Punch Line Comedy Clubs in Northern California. She
has performed at San Francisco Sketchfest, Riot LA Comedy Festival, and overseas for
American troops . Nick Guerra is one of the most exciting comedians quickly making
an impact in the clubs and on TV. Guerra is an audience favorite from NBC’s Last
Comic Standing, made his TV debut on Comedy Central with Gabriel Iglesias’ Stand Up
Revolution and recently made his late night debut on the Tonight Show with Jimmy
Fallon. With his cool and energetic attitude, he skewers relationships, family, and
everyday life.
