About the Lineup:

Torio Van Grol is a comedian whose debut comedy album "Magic Knees," reached #1 on the Apple comedy charts.  His Don't Tell Comedy Special received millions of views and was generally perceived as "pretty good."  He performed as a part of Comedy Central's Cluster Fest, and regularly headlines all over the country.  Torio was listed as one of the Bay Area's best stand-up comedians by SFist and won the title, "Best Joke" by the award-winning SF blog Courting Comedy. ​Torio was first discovered by a gentleman naturalist in 1676, causing an uproar among the clergy, who claimed that he was placed on Earth by God as a test of faith. After much careful study, Torio has been widely accepted as real, though some controversy lingers. Many people believe that early humans coexisted peacefully with him, even caring for him and riding on his back as a form of transportation. But Torio is not strong enough to carry people, instead relying on speed, cunning and a bulletproof eBay rating for survival. ​

Justin Elliott is one of LA's best comedians who doesn't know how to build a website. He regularly performs at comedy clubs across the country including the Comedy Store, the Hollywood Improv, the Laugh Factory, Zanie's and more. He also has toured the country, performing at clubs and colleges all across the nation. He's had some of his stand up featured as part of the Laugh Factory's selected sets. In his free time he hosts the "Think Before You Speak" podcast.

When Dr. Laura Hayden is not killing patients–with laughter, she is killing it on stage as a stand-up comedian. Laura’s stand-up career started at the front of the classroom while she earned her Masters in Physical Therapy. Her ability to highlight the humorous side of medicine led her classmates to nominate her to give their graduation commencement speech. To this day the faculty at Mount Saint Mary’s College still talk about that “infamous” commencement speech which Laura credits as her first stand up performance.

Laura has headlined at comedy clubs across the country including the Comedy Store, the Improv, Stand Up New York, Comedy Works and more. She also performed on Royal Caribbean Cruises and for U.S. troops overseas in Djibouti, Oman, the UAE and more. She's been selected for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland five times as well as numerous festivals across the U.S.
