Marcella is a stand up comedian, writer and actor whose comedy knows no bounds; she eagerly discusses any and every topic that tickles her. From dating short guys - because she has no other options at 6’2’’ - to being mistaken for a man, her Latinx identity, her take on race & gender, and wild stories & situations she’s gotten herself in and out of. Marcella’s debut half hour comedy special Bitch, Grow Up. on HBO & HBO Max is quickly becoming a comedy classic.
Marcella was also the host of The Cache on Tubi in 2021, a hilarious clip show that infuses Marcella’s unique perspective on viral videos. In 2020, COVID-19 halted the entertainment industry, but Marcella managed to guest star in Sarah Cooper’s Netflix Special Everything’s Fine, was seen as a panelist on David Spade’s Lights Out on Comedy Central, killed her over-the-top dance numbers on The Funny Dance Show on E! and had a covid compliant interview on FuseTV’s Like, Share, Dímelo.
Her stand up can be seen on the second season of 2 Dope Queens on HBO as well as Night Train with Wyatt Cenac on STARZ; previously she has made a guest appearance on Comedy Central's Corporate and on episodes of FuseTV's Trivial Takedown.
3 DAYS | 10 SHOWS
Get ready, Lafayette! The Lafayette Comedy Festival is happening August 7-9, 2025. We're bringing together an incredible lineup of top-tier comedians, unforgettable themed shows, and one epic weekend of laughter you won’t want to miss.
Headliners You Can’t Miss
Kicking off the fest is Casey Rocket — a rising comedy star with over 250,000 Instagram followers, sold-out shows across the country, and a fan favorite on the hugely popular K*ll Tony show. Casey’s absurdist, high-energy performances are the stuff of legend, and he’s just one of the heavy-hitters on this year’s roster.
Other headliners include Shane Torres, Kerryn Feehan, Marcella Arguello, and more!
Theme shows include You Look Like Roast Battle, Stoned vs Drunk vs Sober Championships, plus a live recording of the We're Dying Down Here Podcast.
The festival’s main stage will be at Club 337, located inside the DoubleTree Hotel — the perfect space to catch a packed weekend of shows and named the "best club in the south" by comedian Mark Normand. We’re also excited to host two special daytime shows on Saturday at the scenic Gator Cove / Wildcat Brothers Rum Distillery — a perfect mix of good vibes, good drinks, and great comedy.
