Seattle International Comedy Competition

Finals Night 4 Admiral Theatre/Bremerton


Our run of beautiful sold-out theaters continued at the art deco Admiral in downtown Bremerton. David Crowe was once again masterful as the MC, the comics all crushed.

We don't usually comment here on the judging, but tonight the audience and judges were definitely not marching in lockstep, most noticeably when crowd favorite Jose Sarduy was announced in 5th place. Of course, the audience doesn't know that scores often come down to hundredths of a point, since they are only privy to the ordinals and not the cardinals.

When all was said and done, Rodger Lizaola, a San Francisco Comedy Competition finalist earlier this year, grabbed his first first-place finish of either event's final round.

1. Rodger Lizaola 2. Travis Simmons 3. Sean Kent 4. Paul Hooper 5. Jose Sarduy

That means the big Final-Final at the Moore will bring big drama. BIG. Be there.
