April Macie
April Macie was the girl in high school that all the rumors were started about. And while some girls in that situation will turned to sports, food, or friends for comfort, April turned to comedy. Well, she turned to that and promiscuity. But now she’s figured out a way to combine both of her passions in to a comedic style that focuses on irreverent and overtly sexual humor that challenges society’s double standards. April was featured on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing”, and was labeled an “emerging talent to watch” by the Hollywood Reporter. Follow April on twitter and facebook James P. Connolly
James P. Connolly is a Harvard graduate and former Marine Corps Infantry Office but somehow ended up as a standup comedian. For some, that might be considered a step down, but you wouldn’t think that after looking at his resume. Connolly has been featured on Comedy Central, HBO, SiTV, UPN and hosts the show Movie Obsessions on VH1. He’s been a finalist in a number of top comedy competitions such as Ed McMahon’s Next Big Star andLaugh Riots, plus he’s got a great voice, which you can hear on his new CD, The Master Plan.

Shane Mauss got the idea to become a stand-up comedian when he was only eight years old. But knowing his small-town Wisconsin home wasn't exactly a hot bed for comedy, Mauss moved to Boston (when he was older than eight) where he attended some classes and began honing his material. Since then he's gone on to win the Best Stand Up Comic of 2007 award at the Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen and he's made appearances on "Late Night with Conan O'Brien", Comedy Central and Playboy TV.
