Event Details: 9/26 - 'Father, Son & The Holy Gay' or 'Where in the World is Jennifer Knapp?' @ Town - :

Lianna_CarreraComedian Lianna Carrera will premiere her new one woman stand-up comedy show, “Father, Son & The Holy Gay” or “Where in the World is Jennifer Knapp?” this Saturday at Town, with proceeds to benefit the Equality March on Washington.

Lianna Carrera was born to a deaf mother and a hearing father on Christmas day in 1984. Her father was an ordained minister, which meant moving often to establish churches and missions along the East Coast. As she grew older, Lianna began to understand that her experiences as a gay daughter of a southern baptist minister and as a CODA (child of a deaf adult) are unique but more importantly, uniquely hilarious.

Lianna is a stand up comedian that performs for predominantly hearing audiences. The influences of her CODA upbringing can be seen in the large gestures, facial expressions and American Sign Language that she incorporates into her acts.

She has been seen at The Laugh Factory, LA, The Improv, LA, The Tennessee Performing Arts Center in Nashville and continues to travel to colleges, universities and festivals around the country.
