Rodger Lizaola has been delighting for the years with his razor sharp wit, powerful stage presence, and his uncanny ability to say out loud what you are thinking!  Weaving his ability to ad-lib and improve with tales from his childhood, life, loves, and the pursuit of that almighty dollar! This comic tries to entertain and leave the audience with a positive message. As he breaks down barriers and takes no prisoners, as his in your face style will have you rolling with laughter, and have you begging for more!

 

Growing up on the mean streets of Gilroy, CA he always had the knack to make his friends and those around him laugh but to get on “stage” was terrifying. Stage fright aside the opportunity didn’t present it self until February 2003 when he moved to the state of Washington specifically the city of Seattle at the world famous Comedy underground at there open mike night. Those first 3 mins were absolutely terrifying and exhilarating at the same time. All tough the first years were hard and humbling he stuck with it and has now become one of the youngest headliner in the Northwest.

 

He has opened up for such acts as comedy legend David Brenner, Eddie Brill, Louis CK, Tom Cotter, Kyle Cease, Doug Benson, Ty Barnett, and Alonzo Bodden.
