Coleman Green

Coleman Green who's notoriety in the Philadelphia comedy scene has quickly increased his comic opportunities. A rising star, Coleman Green is no stranger to stage and screen. Gracing the stages of many venues and clubs, Coleman somehow manages to find the common link between all races, ethnicities, cultures, and incomes; that makes us all think and laugh. He is an actor as well as a Stand-up Comedian. He has the ability when needed, to bring his comedy into the roles that he portrays. His ability to make you laugh is certainly a talent that can not be taught. Not every comedian can have CEO's and top officials and everyday people bend over in laughter about life and family.
