El Paso navigates by relationship to the line. Downtown rooms fill with families who've crossed back and forth for generations, while Kern Place hosts the artists who discovered the border-town energy. Sunset Heights draws the established residents. The comedy here navigates populations that share a city but experience different relationships to Juárez. Open mics become the rare space where the bilingual and the monolingual, the military and the civilian, sit together. The comics who honor El Paso's specific in-between identity find audiences grateful someone understood the city isn't defined by the wall—it's defined by what flows through.
