Don’t miss your chance
to see my solo show,
Fearless One.
My Comedy
If I had three words to describe my comedy style they’d be: bold, thoughtful, and irreverent.
My work is mostly autobiographical, and ranges in subject from code-switching to gang encounters.
I perform all over DC, MD and VA. And sometimes NYC.

When Bahlya Yansane delves into the meaning of his name, he uncovers the shadowy depths of his family's past. Confronting his blackness, he finds himself entangled with a gang and embarks on a decade-long immersion into whiteness. Amidst this journey, he searches for a sense of belonging in a solo comedy-drama experience lasting an hour. Will he ultimately discover the elusive concept of black joy?

About me
I’m Bahlya Yansané (pronounced Ba-lee-yah Yan-suh-nay). I’m a stand-up comedian, writer, and producer. You’ll probably get my name right by our third interaction.
I started my comedy career at Upright Citizens Brigade, The Peoples Improv Theatre, and Brooklyn Comedy Collective.
Now, I perform all over New York and host two monthly shows.
They Were Nice to Me: A stand-up comedy show.
