Second Chance Comedy
Regular performer
SCC produces over 20 shows per year, featuring comedians in recovery from addiction while conducting fundraising for charity.
An active comic since 2018, Donna Shannon (they/them) appears in and produces showcases throughout Colorado through Coyote Visions Productions. Their comedy career has taken them to such glorious locations as Sacramento, CA, Pueblo, CO, Fort Collins, and of course, the infamous Comedy Works in Denver. In 2025, they were selected as one of the Top 101 Comics for the national World Series of Comedy in Las Vegas. On a personal level, Donna believes in following their dreams, which led them to become a strip club DJ, a recovering addict, a teen mom, and a career coach (not necessarily in that order). As a person who has enjoyed long-term sobriety, their humor hits on a personal level that everyone, even tipsy audiences, can appreciate. Their podcast, Donna Shannon’s Coyote Tales, highlights their personal stories and observations on the ridiculousness of life. In 2024, Coyote Tales was honored as a Top 10 Podcast for Moms - only god knows why.
