Stephen Agyei began his comedy career in his hometown of Denver, CO and quickly became one of the city’s most sought-after comedians; achieving headliner status at the world-famous Comedy Works and the host of Film on The Rocks at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheater. While ascending the Denver scene, this son of Ghanian immigrants double-majored in Communication and Sociology at the University of Colorado-Boulder and ran Division 1 track as a scholarship athlete. In addition to headlining clubs and colleges nationwide, Stephen served as an ambassador of Denver comedy at national comedy festivals like Riot L.A., Bridgetown, Limestone, and High Plains. After appearing on Viceland’s Flophouse and NPR’s All Things Considered, Stephen moved to Los Angeles where he booked roles on Bojack Horseman and Just For Laughs Digital. You may know his face from his national commercial work with both Realtor.com and Rémy Martin (directed by Jake Nava), plus voiceover on Cartoon Network’s Tig-N-Seek.

The show went great! We had so many students in line that we had to turn several away when we hit our building capacity. Stephen and Christie did a great job; so far the feedback has been nothing but positive.

The event and the show was a success. I truly respect Stephen’s craft. I can only imagine how difficult it is for any comedian to perform virtually, with PG guidelines without being able to feed off of the audience’s energy because you can’t tell who’s laughing and who’s not because of the majority of the audience being muted all while still trying to be funny. WOW! Stephen is truly a brave soul!”

The show was great, and Stephen did an awesome job. For him being the second comedian we brought to campus as a program board, our students enjoyed the show. He was easy to work with, had great energy, and was open to talking with our students. Thank you for a great show and for working with us. We hope to work together again in the future.

Stephen and [co-headliner] Jay Light put on great performances and kept the energy high! The students in attendance definitely enjoyed it, and I’m sure they enjoyed the intimate experience since both comedians interacted with them onstage.
Thanks so much to Luc and Brian for all your help!
