Gwen La Roka is without a doubt a rising star of stand-up. Her honest comedic approach, meshed with her physical humor, enables her to bring laughter to crowds of all backgrounds, reminding us that we are all one in the same when it comes to everyday life.

Gwen has worked with some of today’s funniest comedians like Gina Yashere, Felipe Esparza, Aida Rodriguez, Finesse Mitchell and the legendary Paul Rodriguez.

Gwen has been featured at comedy clubs throughout the country including The Improv, The Laugh Factory and Zanies in Chicago. Her corporate work includes American Family Insurance, Commonwealth Edison and the National Museum of Mexican Art.

Fresh off her recent win of HBO Max’s “Entre Nos” Latino comedy competition, she is now the first Latina from Chicago to be featured on a HBO Comedy Special. Gwen La Roka is most definitely an act to watch.
