Spring 2008 Schedule

Expect the unexpected from Director/Comedian/Actor/Writer Victor Varnado. Prevailing over the unique adversity of being born an African American albino, Varnado has succeeded in becoming a nationally known and recognized actor/comedian. Best known for his roles in End of Days and The Adventures of Pluto Nash, Varnado quickly became well known and respected throughout the film community allowing him to branch into other fields of cinematic interest leading him to direct and act in recent film Twisted Fortune (2007) starring Charlie Murphy and Carole Alt and featuring Dave Attell. Given his stand up performances on NBC’s Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Comedy Central and HBO; his role in Chicago City Limits; his awards for both Most Valuable Performer in the 2001 Montreal Just For Laughs Improv Championship and the 2002 Comedy Central Laugh Riots National Stand-Up Competition, it is safe to say that the cutting edge comedian has never let go of his comedy roots and continues to perform stand up on a regular basis.  — www.myspace.com/victorvarnado

Tommy Johnagin started his stand-up career at the ripe young age of eighteen. Tommy dropped out of college at twenty-one to pursue his dream and become a full time comedian. Tommy vows he will one day make enough money to pay his parents back for the six semesters of college he wasted. Tommy doesn’t curse on stage but doesn’t steer away from any topic. If it’s funny Tommy will say it. Tommy is an autobiographical comedian with a gift of finding something funny in everyone he meets and everything he does. Tommy takes great pride in his writing because he is a medium energy act with out the gift to sell a joke with actions alone. At twenty three Tommy is already a favorite at comedy clubs all across the country.— www.tommyjohnigan.com
