Preacher Lawson

Preacher Lawson

Preacher Lawson is a stand-up comedian, actor, and creator known for his high-energy storytelling and physical, joy-driven comedy. He first gained national attention as a finalist on "America’s Got Talent" and has since built a global fanbase through touring, social media, and multiple comedy specials. Preacher headlines clubs and theaters across the world, selling out shows with material that blends sharp observations, family stories, and fearless honesty.

Raised in a military family and shaped by life on the move, Preacher’s comedy centers on resilience, relationships, and finding humor in chaos. Beyond stand-up, he creates digital content, develops film and TV projects, and collaborates with other comedians and creators. His work has been featured on NBC, Netflix Is a Joke, and major comedy festivals, and his independently released specials have reached millions online.

With a loyal audience and an unmistakable stage presence, Preacher continues to expand from stand-up into storytelling across film, documentary, and unscripted projects—most recently chronicling life on the road with his family in his first documentary feature.

Admission Policies

  • Patrons must be 18 or older to attend events or classes at the DC Improv. Any exceptions are clearly noted in the event descriptions.
  • There is a two-item minimum per customer. This can be any combination of food items or beverages. Bottled water and soft drinks count as items. (The two-item minimum does not apply to comedy classes.)
  • Coupons or passes for free admission cannot be used for a show listed as a "special event."

Seating Policies

  • Matinees, the first show of any evening in our main showroom and all shows in our lounge showroom are seated by time of arrival. The earlier you arrive, the more options you'll have. Please note that the size of your party can affect what options are available to you, as certain tables and areas are designated for larger parties.
  • "Late shows" in the main showroom have assigned seating. Assignments are made in order of ticket purchase. Generally speaking, the earlier you buy tickets, the closer you will be to the stage.
  • If tickets are designated as being at a "reserved table," your party will have a table to itself. For general admission or VIP tickets, if your party does not fill an entire table, you may be sharing a table with other patrons.
