Stand-up comedy returns to Malta June 19th

Travis Rhoads with Montarctica Productions is back at it again with another hilarious Stand-up comedy event Wednesday, June 19th, this time at the Tin Cup Bar and Grill.

Headlining this show is Billings native Conner Roma and LA-based comic Jimmy Shin.

Some of you may know Conner as he has performed in Malta during the Christmas Comedy special and once before that at the Villa Theater, during both shows he only gave Malta a small snippet of his stand up routine performing only around 10 minutes as a support act. Always coming away as a crowd favorite, Travis figured it was time to bring him back for his full hour special.

Conner Roma started comedy in his hometown of Billings, Montana before relocating to Denver. Roma derives his humor from past experiences, like the troubles of being the chunky kid on the playground, and from small moments in his everyday life. His emotional connection to his material gives Conner a very real and likable presence on stage. He has performed in clubs and festivals across the country, opening for comics such as Hannibal Buress and Doug Stanhope.

As you may know, Montarctica always likes to bring the firepower to these shows with nationally acclaimed comics and that is just what Jimmy Shin brings to the table, Jimmy has been Mixing his musical and comedic talents all of his life. After graduating from California Western School of Law, Jimmy decided to take a more humorous path.

While in Seattle, Jimmy won the honor of “Rookie Comedian of the Year” in the Seattle International Comedy Competition in 2005 and was advised by Ron Reid (the producer of the competition) to move to Los Angeles. Although urged by his parents to become a lawyer, Jimmy decided to take a leap of faith and pursue his dreams of becoming a comic in LA.

After moving to Los Angeles, Jimmy has been performing all around the country and producing shows at The World Famous Comedy Store. He has performed regularly at the Improv, Laugh Factory, and The Comedy Store. His break came when he performed three times on The Tonight Show.

His parents finally acknowledged that he was a real Comedian when they saw him perform on The Tonight Show and began supporting his decision to pursue a career in Entertainment. He has also appeared on the HBO Series “LUCK”, The Carson Daly New Year’s Special 2015 and most recently has released his One Hour comedy Special “Wok of Shame ” out now on Amazon Prime.

You can catch these two comics and other special guests Wednesday night June 19th at the Tin Cup Bar and Grill, doors open at 8 p.m. Seating is limited so get your tickets or tables early online at http://www.Montarctica.com and come ready to laugh.
