So, what is so special about Funnyman Skiba? The list of answers would be too long to provide but ask your favorite comedian, what’s so special about him. Maybe they will tell you that he is nearly impossible to follow behind him on stage or they may act empty headed. Funnyman Skiba is a 4-Time Comic View All-Star, Former Radio Host on the Raheem DeVaughn Show, a regular on TV One, performed at many of the top comedy clubs in the nation, exclusive host of the United Nations of Comedy Tour, and many other credentials. He has shared the stage with Martin Lawrence, Dave Chapelle, Kevin Hart and others. His high energy on stage will keep you awake and laughing until your stomach gets tight.

United Nations is responsible for bringing comic names such as Jordan Rock, Sheng Wang, Funnyman Skiba, Bridget McManus, Gina Brillon, Cocoa Brown, Jay Phillips, Jason Andors, Erin Foley, Anthony Devito, Shawn Donnelly, Emma Willmann, Ester Ku of Girl Code, and many others. Only nationally recognized comics are granted the opportunity to headline the United Nations of Comedy Series as well as the Tour. The series does provide regional comics the opportunity to open the show. Every show is a BIG SHOW but remember if you do not see United Nations of Comedy on the advertisement then it is not premiere brand of comedy you have come to know and love since 2002.

The Heritage Center was chosen as the host venue due to its ample free parking, convenient location in the heart of Charlottesville, and its state of the art facility. Also, the center is handicap accessible. The facility has become a cultural hub hosting events such as the Look3 Festival, Virginia Film Festival, and the Juneteenth Festival. Beer, wine and refreshments are always available at the venue.
