Laffs Comedy Cafe - Tucson, Arizona

After teaching high school for 12 years, Cory Michaelis "retired" to do comedy full time because he wanted to try out both of the lowest paying jobs in America. Now in his 12th year as a comedian (he's not THAT old...there was some overlap) Cory has a Dry Bar Comedy Special -"Bad Teacher" - that snagged over 80 million views. His debut album, "The Collage Dropout," was released by 800 Lb. Gorilla Records and charted at #2 on iTunes & Billboard (because it was the only album released that week). Cory was a finalist in the Seattle Comedy Competition which means he didn't win and was in Season 2 of Netflix's "Huge in France" with Gad Almelah. In addition to headlining comedy clubs all over the US and Canada, Cory has taken his act global, doing tours in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Pakistan. He also produces Everett Comedy Night in hometown which has had 8 straight years of sold out shows. His act is sharp and irreverent and not suitable for the high school students he used to teach.

Jeff Shaw is not a manly man. Jeff Shaw is not a girly man. Jeff Shaw is a manly girly man. Depending on what kind of hair day he’s having, Jeff can be the girliest man at Home Depot or the manliest man at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Jeff is also an accomplished stand-up comedian whose first Dry Bar Comedy special Manly Girly Man has garnered over 10 million views on Facebook and whose second Dry Bar Comedy special will be released in the fall. Jeff is a former linguist for the Army, a former staff writer for American Greetings, a former comedy club manager for Carnival Cruise Line, a former humor columnist for Cleveland's SCENE Magazine and Buffalo's Artvoice, and the author of The Fun Dude's Guide to Cruising: A Humorous Handbook for Taking Your First Cruise and Living to Complain About It, available on Amazon as both a Kindle e-book and paperback. This former opening act for Michael Bublé’s signature style of stand-up can best be described as “clean and clever comedy with a kick.” In fact, Jeff’s reputation for destroying a room without having to put a dollar in the swear jar has made him an in-demand corporate and cruise-ship comedian. An event coordinator at Amazon headquarters in Seattle wrote, “Jeff Shaw was hilarious, professional, kind, and easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an overall amazing entertainment experience.” In March of 2020, Jeff beat out thousands of contenders to win a spot for Season 15 of America's Got Talent. Although Jeff was crushed to learn that only snippets of his standing-ovation appearance in Pasadena would go to air due to the pandemic’s impact on AGT’s production schedule, he was thrilled to see his On Tour Records release Jeff with Two F's reach #1 on iTunes and Amazon less than a year later. Comedian Jeff Shaw: clean and clever comedy with a kick!

Straight outta the Andes, there’s an unstoppable Peruvian volcano of comedy in the US and her name is Luz Pazos. Luz is on a tear, garnering a finalist spot on Stand Up NBC, featuring on the Kroll Show and Comedy Chingonas on HBOMAX; in addition to winning several comedy competitions like Best Peruvian Female Comic in The 90046 Area Code.

She is fast becoming a darling of HBO Max (Comedy Chingonas;The Garcias), regularly performs at The Comedy Store, Improv, Laugh Factory, and many other top venues around the country. Luz also brings her act to festivals across North America such as Ha Comedy festival in San Antonio, SheDot in Toronto, Asheville Comedy Festival in North Carolina, SoCal’s Ventura Comedy Festival, and the All Jane Comedy Festival in Portland, Oregon. Yes, her accent is strong, but her jokes, comedy routines and ability make audiences from all over laugh, are much stronger!

Luz is a beauty queen (well former, very former…but don’t tell her that) and a serious and comedic actress of stage and telenovelas. She arrived in the US from Peru via Italy, where she obtained degrees in theater, literature and “men” that she will most likely never use (except for the ‘men’ part). Her love of wealthy men…I mean, stand up and air conditioning brought her to LA, where she has been cracking up crowds with her unapologetic skewering of American culture to great acclaim. Though her experiences living on different continents have given her a broadened world view, she has never lost sight of what’s personal, real and the really annoying… making her stand up relatable and hilarious. When she’s not rocking crowds, she enjoys life’s simple pleasures like boxing llamas, eating stuffed guinea pig, and tennis.

Turn-ons: shopping and dining with men who aren’t cheap.

Turn-offs: hiking dates. Take her to the mall!
