Dave Martin, Kathleen McGee and Darren Frost

Born and raised in Toronto, Dave Martin began comedy in 1996 and believes anything can be made funny. Dave performed at the Late Night Danger Zone at the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal. In 2001 Dave received his own hour-long stand-up comedy special for Comedy Now on CTV and The Comedy Network. In 2003 the National Film Board of Canada filmed a documentary on Toronto stand-up comics called The Next Big Thing which appeared on TV Ontario and The Biography Channel in The United States. Dave has also had numerous appearances on Laugh Attack on XM Satellite Radio and CBC/Sirius Satellite Radio. Most recently he made it to the Toronto finals of Last Comic Standing on NBC. Dave is a regular Yuk Yuk’s performer from the East to the West Coast. Don’t miss his up front dark and hilarious observations on the world we live in.

Kathleen McGee is the girl your parents warned you about. She will make you laugh and blush all at the same time. Kathleen has been seen at Just for Laughs, on Bite TV and can be heard regularly on Sirius XM Radio.

In December 2009 Kathleen was named the winner of SIRIUS Satellite Radio’s Russell Peters BFF. Kathleen was personally picked by Russell Peters from a roster of Canada’s top aspiring comics to open his next Canadian tour.

“I watched all the entries – not just the top 10,” Peters said. “I wanted to make sure that I found someone who made me laugh, and Kathleen made me laugh.”

This girl’s unapologetic, dark and sassy sense of humor will have you talking long after the show is over.

Ryan McMahon, comedian

Ryan mixes a traditional stand-up comedy sensibility with a loose improvised slacker style and he blends it all together with characters, multimedia, music and hilarity. Based out of Winnipeg, McMahon is a comedian / actor / writer that is making a name for himself as one of the most dynamic Native Comedians working in North America today. McMahon steers clear of tired, cultural stereotypes onstage, and instead, his live show combines standup, improv, and sketch comedy weaving stories and characters in an original style of comedy that he calls – Indian Vaudeville.
