All of the acts were amazing and Jen Grant blew the roof off La Maison and we were able to help Rachel’s kids out, who does great things in the community. so I’m ecstatic about the night and excited for the next event at La Maison, such a great venue for comedy”, said host and organizer Mark Vincent.
