About this event
You know her as Principal Ava Coleman on Abbott Elementary, the role that earned her four Emmy nominations and a devoted following of fans who can't get enough of her scene-stealing brilliance. But long before Hollywood came calling, Janelle James was doing what she does best: standing on a stage and making rooms full of strangers feel like old friends. Her stand-up is bold, honest, and laugh-out-loud funny. She talks about life the way the rest of us only think about it — unfiltered, sharp, and with a timing that makes it all feel effortless.
