Comedian Spotlight
Steven Sosa
Laredo Funny founder, Steven Sosa, exudes lighthearted charm with an almost childlike wonder when presenting material ranging from his relationships, to absurd hypotheticals, to his family's New York roots. Those roots can be heard in Sosa’s quick talking delivery, a style reminiscent of 1980’s New York, an obvious influence on his comedy. Steven has delighted audiences around country over his 10 years of comedy service. His hair trigger style is sure to leave you in stitches with side splitting laughter.
