From dark, crowded venues, to social-distanced back yards, stand-up comedians are adapting to life in the nation with the world's highest death toll from COVID-19.  VOA’s Veronica Balderas Iglesias found comics in the Washington, DC area who, despite their own struggles, are still succeeding to make people laugh.
