Just announced, Fortune Feimster will be replacing Chuy Bravo in the line-up of comedians from E!'s late night talk show "Chelsea Lately" who will perform their individual stand-up routines at the Suncoast Showroom, March 9 and 10. Feimster joins previously announced participants Chris Franjola, Jen Kirkman and Brad Wollack.

A native of North Carolina, Feimster was a journalist in Los Angeles prior to discovering her talent for making people laugh at an improv class. She made her television debut on "Last Comic Standing" in 2010, and joined the cast and writing team at "Chelsea Lately" the following year.

Franjola recently secured a lead role in the scripted comedy series "After Lately." Before working on "Chelsea Lately," Franjola wrote for numerous hit shows, including "Family Guy" and the original "Chelsea Handler Show."

Kirkman is also known as the narrator in the cult-hit series "Drunk History" which won the jury prize at Sundance Film Festival and can be viewed at funnyordie.com. Her latest stand-up album, "Hail to the Freaks" reached No. 13 on the Billboard charts and her first book, "I Can Barely Take Care of Myself," will be released in April 2013.

Wollack is an Emmy nominated television writer and comedian who is also the co-executive producer of "Chelsea Lately" and co-creator of "After Lately." He has appeared as a guest on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," and is widely recognized for his roles in national television commercials.
