With impressions, music and a closing bit that will have you falling out of your seat, Steve's rollercoaster ride of laughs will leave you short of breath and begging for more. Get ready America because the new British Invasion of comedy has arrived.

Judy Tenuta - Mar 9, 10
Judy Tenuta is the most famous person who has ever lived...and if you don't believe it, just ask her. Judy is a triple threat in the sense that she has strong stage, television, comedy and film credits with a large fan base. She has appeared in The Vagina Monologues, Menopause the Musical both in LA and Chicago, and she's had her own stand-up specials on Showtime, HBO and Lifetime. Judy was the first female stand-up comic to win Best Female Comedian at the American Comedy Awards and is a two-time Grammy nominee for her comedy CD’S, Attention Butt-Pirates and Lesbetarians! and In Goddess We Trust. That same year, she became the national spokesperson for a series of Diet Dr. Pepper commercials. The self-described Love Goddess and Aphrodite of the Accordion has made hundreds of guest and co-hosting appearances on such popular TV shows as The View, Late Night with David Letterman, Larry King Live, Entertainment Tonight, and Comics Unleashed.Judy's stand-up routine is appropriately described as outrageous, mind-blowing comedy. She recently became an ordained minister, and converts her audiences to her signature religion, Judyism. A strong advocate for gays, children and women's issues, the fun-loving feminist preaches that all women should be worshipped as Love Goddesses!
Some of Judy's roles include: an ex-show girl turned wedding chaplain on General Hospital, a snobby judge on Corey in the House and a featured role in the teen comedy hit, Material Girls, starring Hillary and Haley Duff and directed by Martha Coolidge. Judy also produced and starred in her own film, Desperation Boulevard about a former child star who stops at nothing to make a comeback. Judy will soon appear in the indie film, Sister Mary with Bruce Villanch.... so watch out, Meryl Streep!
April Macie - Mar 15, 16, 17
Do you remember the girl in your high school who had a horrible rumor spread about her? It might have involved a football team, a dog and some peanut butter or processed meat. Well, that girl in Easton, Pennsylvania was April Macie. So, where did she turn for comfort? Not to her family... cause' they're all crazy. Crazy or drunk... oh yeah, or slightly retarded. So, where do you go when you're an outcast in school and your family tree is rotten? While some might sit rocking in the fetal position... slowly humming Copa CopaCabbana, others might turn to the lord and April turned to promiscuity. Promiscuity and then comedy. With her irreverent brand of overtly sexual humor she attempts to break down double-standards and lend her voice to sexually dissatisfied women everywhere. April would like to add that she doesn't really know what irreverent means, but she's heard a lot of other comics use it and thought it sounded kinda' cool. "Her comedy is searingly honest," said this guy she knows from working at Hooter's who came to see her show one time. Although she has only been doing comedy for a short period of time, she has been using comedy as a defense her entire life. She loves to perform and her favorite role to play is victim. For April, comedy isn't a career, comedy isn't even a choice. Comedy is a calling!! She totally stole that quote from Bernie Mac... but it's soooo great and she truly believes it is her calling. April also loves to talk about herself in the third person and thinks "bios" are retarded.
