Stand Up Miami: Michelle Castro & Friends

Stand-up and long-form improv come together for a birthday edition of Stand Up Miami featuring comedian Michelle Castro and a lineup of guests at Just the Funny. The Saturday, September 12 show begins with stand-up before shifting into an improvised set built from real stories and audience-driven conversation.

A Miami-based comedian, improviser, instructor, producer and host, Castro has been performing since 2017, with appearances at the Miami Improv, Fort Lauderdale Improv, Don’t Tell Comedy shows and festivals around the country. She also produces and hosts Stand Up Miami, Just the Funny’s weekly stand-up showcase highlighting local comedians.

The special edition marks Castro’s 34th birthday while bringing together the two sides of her comedy work: the storytelling-based stand-up she developed in recent years and the improv practice where she began.
