Comedian Suzanne Westenhoefer LATE NIGHT - LETTERMAN, I'M NOT CINDY BRADY, GUARANTEED FRESH, LAUGHING MATTERS,
No one ever accused Suzanne of being subtle, not the shuttle driver who took her to the airport, the woman she was in line with at the grocery store yesterday and certainly not her audiences. Subtle, she is not. After 25 years of groundbreaking, stereotype-shattering and brutally honest comedy, she�s not about to start pulling punches now. The kid from Amish Country who began her comedy career on a dare is celebrating a quarter century of out, open, no-holds-barred comedy. WEBSITE | |

Comedian Travis Nelson SICC, CAPE FEAR COMEDY FESTIVAL, WESTSIDE COMEDY SHOWDOWN, IDAHO LAUGH FEST,
Technically a giant at 6'9", Travis was raised in the rainforests of Washington State where the lack of sunshine and abundance of caffeine fostered his obsessive goofball personality. With an act that intertwines real personal stories and experiences with absurd and imaginative meanderings, he invites the audience to escape into the sometimes dark but always lighthearted playground of his psyche.

Comedian Anna Polack FLAPPERS COMEDY, BURBANK COMEDY FESTIVAL, THE ICE HOUSE PASADENA, LAUGH RIOT GRRL FESTIVAL, TAO COMEDY
Anna thought it might be a little on-the-nose to be the youngest child of an alcoholic AND be a comic, so she spent 15 years in the nonprofit sector trying to be a serious person. It didn't take. Five years ago she essentially gave up on NOT doing comedy. Since then, she's performed at Tao Comedy, the Laugh Riot Grrl Comedy Festival, the Parents Need a Night Out Festival, The Ice House, and hosts regularly at Flappers. In 2018 she was voted Best of the Fest at the Burbank Comedy Festival.  Her humor is a defiantly sunny outlook on the macabre of parenthood, marriage, and the women's locker room at the YMCA.
