Minority Retort presents Papp Johnson

Minority Retort presents: Papp Johnson!

Minority Retort, Portland's premier stand-up comedy showcase featuring Black and brown comedians, is pleased to bring back to The Siren Theater… comedian Papp Johnson!
Papp Johnson (SF Sketchfest, Treefort Music Festival, NW Black Comedy Festival) offers audiences thoughtful stupidity that will make you feel bad for laughing at his observations that are politically incorrect, but right on the money. His deep voice and monotone delivery suck in the crowd and leave them hanging onto every word. Winner of San Francisco’s Death at a Funeral comedy contest, Papp Johnson is a sure-fire star to keep your eyes on. 

Joining Papp on the lineup will be:

-Ikes!

-The Mad Bus Driver!

-Brandon Lyons!

And your host for the evening, Rissa Riss!

Doors at 7:30/ Show at 8:00
