Richmond’s newest comedy club, the Sandman, is still warming up when it comes to attracting big-name talent. The kind of top acts that were a weekly staple at the temporarily closed Funny Bone Comedy Club and Restaurant won’t be found on this club’s calendar yet. But they’ve got jokes and a corner on the market for a moment.
This month, comedian Chris Alan, who appeared on “Laugh on Fox” and has performed at the Kennedy Center, takes the stage July 1-3. He’s opened for stand-up all-stars like Hannibal Burress and Amy Schumer, and as part of a government mandate for comedians, he has his own podcast.
