Ron Feingold headlines on April 4. Feingold has been performing across the country since 1990.  Ron’s act is a unique and wonderful fusion of the worlds of comedy and music. He combines his very funny comedy routine with his incredible singing voice to create hilarious song parodies. Ron is the creator of Comedy A Cappella, a blend of traditional stand-up and A Cappella music where he is literally a one-man vocal band. Relying on his own voice as his sole instrument, Ron creates a truly unique musical comedy experience for audiences. Ron has applied this talent to record his new CD, “Solo Effort,” where he sings all of his own back-ups, lead vocals, and percussion.

John Charles opens for Feingold as a featured act on the 4th. A 20-plus-year comedy veteran, John Charles has a penchant for big ideas and brings his own signature brand of slacker chic mentality to every performance. JC offers a smooth blend of self-deprecating introspection and high-octane revelations and has been seen on stages across the country or heard “On Air w/Ryan Seacrest.”

Carl Guerra headlines on April 11. Guerra entertains audiences with clever observations, improvs, characters, and guitar, without relying on profanity or sophomoric humor. Carl started performing stand-up comedy in the New York metro area as soon as he graduated from college. He honed his craft at clubs such as Dangerfield’s, The Comic Strip, and The Improvisation and has opened for Patti LaBelle, Joan Rivers, Julio Iglesias, Paul Anka, Debbie Reynolds, George Benson, Ray Romano, and Rosie O’Donnell. He has performed nationwide on the college circuit and appeared on television in “Star Search” and “Evening at The Improv.” 

Mariza Brussolo opens for Guerra as a featured act on the 11th. Brussolo is a stand-up comedian, actor, and producer. She is a 2019 Florida Funniest Female finalist and has performed with touring comedians, Mark Norman, Jimmy Shubert, Jeff Dye, and Kyle Grooms. Mariza’s comedy is clean and addresses family and daily life.

Mark Evans headlines on April 18. An Atlanta native, Evans comedy is hilarious, smart, to the point, and cutting-edge clean. His “Southern, Not Stupid!” show has been taking audiences by storm from coast to coast, on land, and at sea. Mark helps audiences see the lighter side of the dumb things that happen all around us every day. His takeaways: you don’t have to be dirty to be funny, and, having a Southern accent does not mean you are stupid. Mark says, “You can’t pinpoint stupidity to any one region or group; it’s universal.” His examples of widespread stupidity have left his audiences doubled over with laughter, and hopefully a little wiser, too. Mark has been making people laugh since he first took the stage in 1993. Over the years, he’s worked in comedy clubs, colleges, casinos, corporate events, country clubs, international resorts, and cruise ships.

Tim Boyd headlines on April 25. Boyd's unique perspective, coupled with his lightning quick wit and relatable humor, has made him a sought-after entertainer and speaker. He is a born storyteller whose journey into the world of comedy was influenced by his rich and diverse experiences. For twenty years, Tim served as a pastor, where he touched the lives of many through his compassionate leadership and unwavering dedication to his community.  During that time, he cultivated invaluable skills in communication, empathy, and understanding, which continue to shape his approach to comedy. Tim is the author of “Loser: The Two-Talent Servant,” a hilarious look at the amazing truth found in one of Jesus’ parables.
