Angel Salazar is not your typical comedian. His Cuban heritage and penchant for sporting mini-skirts notwithstanding, this manic, human laugh factory is rather difficult to describe. Salazar’s performance is a mixture of street-smart ethnic wisecracks, risque humor, physical comedy, and audience involvement. Angel has not only launched a successful career as a comedian, but is also an established actor, who has appeared in such noteworthy films as “Scarface”, “Punchline”, “Carlito’s Way”, and “Where the Buffalo Roam”. He was also featured in Cheech and Chong’s comedy video “Born in East L.A.” Angel was the winner of the 1984 Los Angeles Comedy Competition, hosted by Jay Leno. He has headlined at The Comedy Store in L.A., The Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas, Catch a Rising Star in New York City, and The Tropicana Hotel in Atlantic City. He has opened for the Beach Boys, Billy Ocean, Whitney Houston, Van Halen and The Miami Sound Machine. This diminutive comic is achieving success on a grand scale. As Angel implores you in his act: “Check it out!”
