NEIL HAMBURGER:
“America’s Funnyman” Neil Hamburger has worked every imaginable stage, from New York’s Madison Square Garden, to a show in pitch black darkness at the Edin- burgh Fringe Fest. He has performed countless American, Australian, British, Irish, and Canadian tours, as well as in Norway, New Zealand, and the Bahamas, along- side acts ranging from Faith No More to Robin Williams. His TV credits include Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Tom Green Live, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. His Live At Third Man album was produced by Jack White in Nashville; an earlier Hamburger effort was included in SPIN’s “40 Greatest Comedy Albums Of All Time.” The fea- ture movie Entertainment, a dramatic look at Hamburger on- and off-stage co-star- ring John C. Reilly, Tye Sheridan, and Michael Cera, premiered at the Sundance and Locarno Film Festivals, and was released in 2015 to rave reviews. His recent Drag City album of lavishly-produced song, Still Dwelling, featured a memorable trio version of Jesus Christ Superstar’s “Everything’s Alright” with Neil singing alongside Mike Patton and Jack Black.

MAJOR ENTERTAINER:
Major Entertainer is a Los Angeles based professional *OPENING ACT* deeply committed to self promotion and social networking. Able to quickly adapt to any situation in which entertainment is required, he shines brightest in front of a small audience who has never heard of him before.

CHER HANN:
A founding member of both the legendary Picnicface sketch troupe and the Big Funny comedy crew, Cher Hann has shared the stage with Maria Bamford, Eric Andre, Eugene Mirman, and Brian Posehn. When she’s not making people laugh, Cher can be found co-running SLURP, the city’s hottest dance party, or at school teaching people about books.

BIG FUNNY:
Cher Hann, Max Kerr and Collin Flanagan run the weirdest comedy shows in Halifax. You can find them on stage with millions of dollars of sports cars or in a nasty basement full of spiders.  Max and Collin will host the show and teach you all about their weird little world.
