One of Denver’s finest. Meet CHRIS CHARPENTIER!
Chris Charpentier likes the lighter side of life, mostly because he is small and he has to ask for help with heavy stuff and that’s embarrassing. Chris has quickly made a name for himself in the Denver comedy scene and helps run the weekly stand up showcase Too Much Fun! with his comedy cohorts, The Fine Gentleman’s Club.
