From October 30th through November 2nd, the 'Best Island in the World' (according to Conde Nast Traveller readers) will play host to the first annual Maui Comedy Festival. This event brings a three-day, multi-venue comedy showcase to the historic town of Lahaina on the island of Maui. Attendees will have the chance to experience more than 30 of today's funniest and smartest comics, including Hannibal Buress, Reggie Watts, Tig Notaro, Marc Maron and Aisha Tyler.
Many people will go out of the way to see their favorite actor, band or genre of music, but will choose a comedy show based only on which venue is closest.

She attends comedy festivals around the world, publishes and curates critical analysis of performances at http://www.TheSpitTake.com, as part of her mission to elevate the public perception of comedy as an art form.
