WJFF - Curtain Call with Tom Candela

This week on Curtain Call, Tom sits down with comedian, writer, and actress Chanel Ali, who makes her Off-Broadway debut with her powerful and hilarious one-woman show Relative Stranger.

Chanel’s comedy has taken her from MTV’s Girl Code to Netflix’s Dash & Lily, Comedy Central’s Taking the Stage, and the international spotlight of the Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne International Comedy Festival. Named one of Deadline’s 15 Comedians to Watch in 2025, she now brings her boldest and most personal work to New York audiences.
