PAUL CONYERS Winner of Las Vegas "World Series of Comedy" in SF (NOV 21-22)

Former college basketball benchwarmer and winner of Las Vegas' "World Series of Comedy," The Function welcomes nationwide touring comedian Paul Conyers to headline SF's only black-owned comedy club for a rare appearance.

Headliner: PAUL CONYERS
Paul Conyers is one of the fastest rising comedians in the country. A former college basketball benchwarmer, his vivid storytelling and razor-sharp writing have made him an undeniable talent in a way his abysmal shooting percentage never could. His debut comedy special, "Above The Fray," is available on Amazon Prime Video, and his newest special, "Should've Stayed Downstairs," is now streaming on the Open Bar Comedy Network. In 2024, Paul was selected for the Moontower Comedy Festival, where he was featured on the highly coveted "Overlooked" show, which highlighted "hilarious comedians you've yet to discover."

Paul won 1st place at the 2020 World Series of Comedy Main Event in Las Vegas, and has been selected as “Best of the Fest” at the SLO Comedy Festival, Big Pine Comedy Festival, Oakland Comedy Festival and the Sacramento Comedy Festival. He is a regular at comedy clubs, theaters, casinos and cruise ships all over the country. You can catch his comedy playing on Pandora and SiriusXM. Paul is absurdly tall and may become confrontational if you claim to know more about Harry Potter than he does.
