DAVE SIRUS

Dave Sirus began his career doing stand up shows while still a high school student in NJ, before attending Syracuse University where he originated his character Brick Stone, a confrontational reporter that has since garnered tens of millions of hits on YouTube.  Dave moved to Los Angeles after college where he continued doing stand up and sketch comedy, as well as becoming known as the arch-enemy of the Westboro Baptist Church, counter-protesting the hate group at dozens of locations, which led to being a correspondent on RT America’s The Alyona Show and HuffPost Live. Dave was also featured comedian on NuvoTV’s “Stand Up & Deliver”, and his mockumentary “Archie Black” was chosen for the Los Angeles Comedy Festival.  Sirus returned to New York in September of 2015 as a new writer on Saturday Night Live, and continues to tour the country doing stand up with Pete Davidson.

 

JOEY GAY

"Comedy comes naturally to me," says stand-up comedian and actor Joey Gay, who mines his laughs from his infamous surname, his colorful childhood in Brooklyn and his place in the family as the younger brother of five sisters, which gave him a unique perspective from an early age on the differences between men and women. Reminded how short life is by his father's death, Gay decided to pursue his dream of going into show business. He's been entertaining audiences ever since, and is now a regular at New York comedy hotspots like Caroline's on Broadway, Comedy Village, Laugh Factory and Catch a Rising Star.
