Nigerian American stand-up comedian and actor Seyi Brown delivers hilarious comedy to Los Angeles fans with his Culture Shock comedy show at the Nate Holden Performing Arts Center, hosted by Legendary Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo. Brown is one of Nigeria's most successful stand-up comedians and performs to sold out crowds around the country. In 2017, Brown did a 5-city comedy tour in Atlanta, Washington D.C., New York City, Chicago and Seattle.
