Soulfunny will also put on a workshop to teach HANDY's youth about the comedy profession and the performing arts. "We look forward to partnering with Soulfunny in their South Florida premier," says Arlene Ratner, Executive Director of HANDY, Inc., "our youth are grateful for the support of Soulfunny and excited to enjoy the performances of their comedians."
