New Faces : Characters

The Just For Laughs “New Faces” showcase is one of the most anticipated events in comedy, with a
long-standing track record of launching comedy’s biggest stars. Alumni include global icons like
Kevin Hart, Amy Schumer, Ali Wong, Jo Koy, and Kumail Nanjiani, Saturday Night Live cast members
like Jimmy Fallon, Pete Davidson, and Heidi Gardner, as well as Canadian Comedy Award winner
DeAnne Smith, and Letterkenny’s K. Trevor Wilson. Recent New Faces have been rising stars like
Derrick Stroup, Leslie Liao, and Marcello Hernandez, whose stand-up sets have racked up millions
of views online.

This year’s New Faces lineup includes two distinct showcases:
Stand-Ups (3 different lineups) and Characters, both presented as live performance showcases.
