We have yet another intriguing experience waiting for you at James Charles newly re-vamped Salon Room! On Saturday, July 23rd, we are hosting an Expand Your Mind with Wine show!

This show will feature two outstandingly talented individuals.
Jani Tillery

The show will open with the hilarious comedian, from Jani Tillery. She hails from Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. She is a Washington D.C. based attorney and comedian who practices law by day and tells jokes by night. Jani has performed standup comedy around D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Jani has also performed at comedy clubs and festivals around the country. She was recently featured in a Comedy show over at Bogati Winery in Round Hill and she was so funny that we had to have her come out to James Charles!

Christophe Fox

Our featured act will be the mentalist and magician, Christophe Fox. He could be spotted in our Vaudeville show this past April as the opening act where he wowed the crowd with his skillful mind-reading. Christophe is a corporate presenter, speaker, and entertainer. As the two-timer winner of Washington D.C.’s Magician of the Year, TEDx Speaker, and social media influencer- his talents are used in the service of helping clients host events with impact. His clients include The Four Seasons, Keller Williams, J.P. Morgan, McLean Mortgage, ENO, Pivotal Software, Fairway Independent Mortgage, The U.S. Military, BH Mid-Atlantic Inc, and Alarm.com – just to name a few.

He performs magic, mentalism, hypnotism and mind-reading!

Check out his website or book him for a show here!

Comedy Night at James Charles

You’re invited to the brand new Salon Room at James Charles Winery for a night full of laughter! Our very first Comedy Night will surely make your sides split! Grab your friends and get ready to laugh!

Good jokes paired with good wine can only bring out the greatest laughter.

Coming to the Salon Room for one night only, it’s James Charles’ very first Comedy Night!

On Saturday, June 11th, our brand new Salon Room will open its doors for a night of side-busting laughter and a good time. The doors for this event will open at 7 PM and the chuckling begins at 8 PM sharp! Seating will be open, so arrive early to get a good spot to view the show!

Our show will host two hilarious local comedians:

Mark Matusof

One of the top comics to come out of Washington D.C., Mark has been described in the press as “funny without being vulgar or nasty” and “going the smarter, hipper direction to the joke.” A first generation American, Mark’s material ranges from his immigrant family to the aggravations of modern life; from current events to the fragility of the male ego.  There’s even a little music tossed in for good measure!

Liz Barlow

Liz Barlow is a stand-up comic and writer from Virginia Beach, VA. She’s been seen on Zanies, Funny Bone and Comedy Zone stages. She’s a published essayist with several articles in the Huffington Post. If she isn’t telling jokes or moming, she’s probably handing out masks at the trap house.

Tickets for the show are $22 for general admission and $18 for our Legacy Club Members.

Show your confirmation email that you received after purchase upon arrival.
