Comedian J.C. Currais is traveling to Vail on Thursday for a pop-up comedy show at El Sabor in Lionshead Village. This will be the third show in Lionshead hosted by the Vail Comedy Show, the six-year-old organization better known for shows in Vail Village. 

“We are thrilled to be working with El Sabor which has been a great partner,” said comedian Mark Masters who runs Vail Comedy Show and hosts the events. “We have some incredible shows coming up this ski season in their space including this one. Being right on the slopes for a night of laughter is something special, and the tacos and margaritas are the best in Vail.”

Born and raised in Miami, Florida, Currais mixes a larger-than-life stage persona with a high-energy performance style. He has performed on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” “Last Call with Carson Daly,” FOX’s “Laughs” and TBS’s “CONAN.” He was named one of TBS’s Top Comics to Watch at the New York Comedy Festival.

As an actor, he has appeared on FOX’s “Lethal Weapon,” BET’s “Real Husbands of Hollywood” and was a writer on Comedy Central’s “TripTank.” He made his film debut in the Sundance Film Festival feature “New Low.” He became a series regular on the Disney Channel’s original series “Just Roll With It” in its second season.

Every Vail Comedy Show includes special guests. On Thursday, Al Jackson will make an appearance. Jackson has a half-hour program on Comedy Central, headlines shows around the country and has been seen on MTV, FX, FOX, NBC and TruTV.
