Community Arts Cafe presents Comedy Potluck

May 24, 2012

Let’s face it, life is good, but it can also be hard, and couldn’t we all use a good laugh right about now? Comedians Sarah Barnhart and JJ Johnson certainly think so, and they’re more than happy to accommodate you at the Comedy Potluck every second Tuesday and fourth Saturday of the month at the Community Arts Café Underground Theatre in Winston-Salem. The bi-monthly show features local standup comedians and Winston-Salem’s own improv troupe Nekkid Feet. The next show is Saturday, May 26, at 8:00pm.

JJ grew up in Winston-Salem, and eventually wound up in L.A., where he worked on films like Malibu’s Most Wanted and Charlie’s Angels 2. You may recognize the actor/comedian as one of the on-field entertainment hosts for the Winston-Salem Dash where he tag teams with his colleague Sarah Barnhart to keep the crowd on its feet. Sarah is a Winston-Salem native, comedienne, actress and owner of The Dueling Butter Knives, a website devoted to sketch comedy and comedic marketing.
