Kofi Thomas

kofi

Hello there, I am Kofi Thomas and I have loved comedy as long as I can remember. I love to laugh and I love taking people for a ride when I am on stage. I bartend so I am constantly taking perfect strangers and trying to make them feel comfortable. I started comedy a little over seven years ago and it continues to surprise me. I hope I get the chance to make you all laugh. Thank you.
