Join your hosts and real-life legal eagles Andrea Coleman and JR Strauss as they guide you through the minefield of American jurisprudence using comedy, guile, and good old fashioned case law.
What’s funnier than the cornerstones of American justice? Andrea and JR are here to argue that the answer is NOTHING.
All Rise is an entertaining mock RE-trial of landmark U.S. Supreme court cases, featuring sketch, dance, a hilarious guest judge, and know-it-all experts. And get ready for the rare instance where you’ll WANT to be chosen for Jury Duty…
This month: Immigration, or “Build a wall or open the borders – is it closing time in America?”
Andrea and JR proudly fight alternative facts with legal fictions as they face off over America’s immigration laws, argue if there’s anything cool about ICE, and ask some of New York’s best comedians and legal experts to testify before guest judge Ike Ufomadu and a jury of slightly buzzed audience members.
Special guests: Ike Ufomadu Sandy Chansamone Blaze Mancillas Raj Sivaraman Jen Kwok Laura Sofia Rodriguez - LGTBQ/Detention Staff Attorney with American Friends Service Committee Directed by Andrew Tisher
