We're so excited for our Valentine's Day show, and we're thrilled to announce our first special guest for the evening, Jermaine Callando!

When it comes to energy on stage it's hard not to think of Jermaine Callando. A native of Winston-Salem, Jermaine has gotten himself into comedy and hasn't looked back. Jermaine is not afraid to speak his mind. It has driven him to tell his truth on stage doing stand-up and as a member of "The Everlasting Improv-ers'" Troupe. Down to his podcasts as a co-host on "The Art of Sexuality", or helming his own on "Thee Moments with Jermaine Callando". With an infectious laugh of his own, he brings smiles to the rooms he performs.

Jermaine has been a part of the NC Comedy Festival, A regular host at Monstercade in Winston Salem and Co produces a stand up Showcase called The PULL OUT Comedy Showcase on the Last Wednesday of Every Month, the Raleigh Pride 2022, and even opened for JT Habersaat and Eddie Pepitone and Ali Clayton. Jermaine is putting his stamp on the comedy world and no matter where he is, will definitely bring "The Moment"!
