Comedians born in Salvador

The first capital of colonial Brazil, Salvador is the vibrant heart of Bahia and of Afro-Brazilian culture, its historic Pelourinho district a UNESCO World Heritage Site of colourful colonial mansions and baroque churches. Famous for its music, cuisine and one of the world's largest street Carnivals, driven by trios elétricos, it pulses with energy. This exuberant coastal metropolis is fertile ground for Brazil's expanding stand-up comedy scene.
