Reece Cotton likes a good theme show. Both in person (in pre-pandemic days) and online, she has produced shows under the banners of queer comedy, Black women in comedy, and Black men in comedy. But she would say there has been a common denominator with all of them, and thatâs âLove for Humans,â which also happens to be the name she has attached to the inaugural Comics Rising Comedy Festival, a four-night virtual stand-up show that kicks off Wednesday.
