Chris Coccia’s comedy is the perfect mix of hilarious material and in-the-moment engagement. He flows seamlessly between his act and improvised interaction with the crowd. Over 25 years performing full-time as a stand-up, Chris has honed his ability to engage with a crowd and entertain a variety of audiences. From late night shows in Vegas to early morning teambuilding breakfasts, Chris always leaves them laughing.
Outside of his headline appearances, you may have seen Chris as the opening act for performers such as Jon Lovitz, Norm Macdonald, Dennis Miller, Dom Irrera, Chaka Kahn, Roy Clark, and Dennis DeYoung. He was the winner of the Purina Pet Comedy Competition and an invited guest performer at the American Comedy Festival. He was also invited to present his talk, "There’s No Cool in Comedy," for TEDx at Arcadia University. He can be heard on Sirius/XM and is a frequent guest on morning radio shows in his hometown of Philadelphia.
In addition to performing, Chris shares his love of comedy in Five Minutes to Funny, an enormously popular stand-up comedy class he developed and has been teaching at the DC Improv for the last 12 years. He developed a spin-off of this class, Comedy Bootcamp, in partnership with the Armed Services Arts Partnership, which works to create community for military members through shared creative outlets.
