Stand Up Comedy Show for Peace

The show premiered at the legendary Comedy Store in Los Angeles in 2022 with the goal of uniting people with laughter by bringing comedians from conflicting countries together on stage. It turned out to be a big success with a sold-out room, and inspired producer and comedian Anya Zova to take it on the road and do comedy for a good cause. Show expended to different wars and conflicts around the Globe.  Make Laughs Not War has played at Cobbs San Francisco, Punch Line Philly, Carolines on broadway and Hollywood Improv, as well as New York Comedy Festival 2023. 

 There are 32 ongoing conflicts in the world right now, ranging from drug wars, terrorist insurgencies, ethnic conflicts, and civil wars. At this current moment, the world needs laughter more than ever.


Our goal is to spread peace by uniting people through laughter and joy. As well as raising funds for the victims, we collaborate with non profit organizations all over the world.
