Shayla and Paul Rodriguez
Shayla Rivera is a Puerto Rican/American stand-up comedian who uses observational and self-deprecating humor to point out that the truth is the funniest thing out there. Rivera’s material is intended for mature audiences as she reports her observations of the common experiences in our everyday life. Her point of view comes from being herself, a woman, a Latino, a mother, a rocket scientist, a mystic, etc., “You know, a typical human being”, she says. She will often base her humor on observations of our cultural differences and refers often to her childhood experiences in Puerto Rico and the culture shock of moving into the American Culture at the tender age of 17. Rivera enjoys a fan base that crosses age groups, genders, and cultures; she is respected in the comedy community as a great comedian to watch and work with.
