A Bethlehem, PA native Sean Green has brought his East Coast sensibilities to the Los Angeles comedy scene. Known for his brazenly honest storytelling, Sean isn’t afraid to share the hilarious episodes that perpetuate his personal life. An open book policy also applies to Sean’s educated acerbic takes on current events in the world. Sean is a founding member of Los Angeles’ hottest underground comedy club ‘The Comedy Garage’ and a regular at the Improv Olympic and 3 Clubs. Besides his work as a standup and emcee, Sean hosts a weekly talk show broadcast live on LaTalkradio.com called ‘The Green Room’. Sean’s other projects include programs on livevideo.com, National Lampoon Radio, Comedy Nation and Spike.
In 1999 Jason’s face was immortalized as the whacky, Jim Carrey like “Mr. Paramount”, the face of the Paramount Comedy Channel. He soon became a popular personality on British television hosting on the BBC, Disney Channel ITV and even performing at London’s Royal Albert Hall in front of an audience of 5000. Then came the biggest upset in Canning family history… Jason moved to LA! The minute the ink dried on his green card Jason got to work, starting at E! Entertainment narrating their long running movie review show, Extreme Close-Up and spilling the celebrity gossip on Gone Bad. Upon setting foot on the new continent Jason brought his fish out of water tales of life in America to the comedy stage and embarked on his life-long dream of becoming a stand-up comic. From years of hitting stages big & small across the country Jason’s clean comedy has a wide appeal and can only be described as what would happen if you crossed Jim Carrey with Hugh Grant, hilarious & polite! Jason never holds back on stage and feels life has come full circle now where cracking up a room full of people only brings him more work instead of detention! Teaming up with fellow Brit comic Natalie Gray (appearing at San Pedro BrewHaHa November 7 and 8) they wrote and starred in a half hour comedy pilot called No Talent Required. Check out the trailer on Youtube.
Bruce Jingles is not a black comic. He's a comic that happens to be black. He has performed with famous national headliners such as Jeff Garcia, Carlos Mencia, Chris Tucker, Gabriel Iglesias, Damon Wayans, Dave Chappelle, Dane Cook, Christopher Titus, Paul Mooney and many others. Bruce's material ranges from his teenage years in a Latin community to his several mishaps with the law. His 2 DUI's to his obsession with marijuana - or sometimes he just simply talks about his day. His credits include the movie "Driving Bill Crazy", and two Showtime specials this year, "Jeff Garcia's Low Budget Madness" and "The Ten Dollar Ticket." If you get a chance to see Bruce not just on Showtime, VH1, NBC or in video clips from a USO Tour, but live and in person at a show.. you get just that....a show. Come on, with a name like Bruce Jingles, he was born to do comedy.

Gail now lives in West Hollywood CA and has been running her own comedy show for over two years in Van Nuys CA. She performs her stand-up routine on a regularly basis every week. She is known to be one of the hardest working girls in the biz. To catch one of Gail's shows visit www.myspace.com/gailgramlich for her gig list.

She hit the stage at age 12 in the UK and starred as Aladdin at age 13 (the only member of an all adult theatre company). When her father's rock star lifestyle almost broke up the family, the Grays moved to Canada where a more normal family life could finally begin. In Canada, Natalie continued to flourish, winning a national modelling contest at 18, being cast as a lead in a teen soap and doing a successful 3 year run as a host on live children’s television! Natalie has since done over 100 episodes of Canadian television and been nominated for 6 ACTRA awards for hosting, interviewing and acting. She studied for 2 years with Toronto’s Second City, following which she had her own successful improv troupe. Natalie studied acting in Toronto, Frankfurt, New York and L.A. where she now lives. A rare breed of comic, funny and clean, her innocent, bright persona and compelling facial and physical dynamics draw frequent comparisons to Lucille Ball.
