Local Comedian Andrea Rossi Preps for Sunflower Theatre Comedy Showcase and Shares Her Journey into Stand-Up

LP McKay / KSJD
The Marquee at The Sunflower Theatre lets passersby know about the upcoming showcase - a first in many years.

Andrea Rossi is a stand up comedian who lives and performs here in the 4 Corners. I talked to her about the upcoming Comedy Showcase which will be held on Saturday, October 19th at the Sunflower theater. We started off by talking about how she got into comedy. She is also teaching a Stand Up Comedy Class at the Sunflower, and some of the students will perform at the showcase.

LP recently moved to Mancos from Austin, Texas, where they worked as a Case Manager for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and in HOA property management where they were fortunate to learn many different styles of communication and creative thinking/problem solving. In their time away from work, they watch a ton of movies (spanning all decades, nationalities, and genres), and tries to listen to one really good album every day.
