Im truly happy when I'm creating." ---- OTHER COMEDIANS ON THE SHOW ----- Bobby Friske: He was born in Lubbock Texas. Bobby was really sent to asthma camp, his first real job was steaming clothes at Lane Bryant and his family stories are true. He has burned many things down in life, including his uncle's barn, and his hair. He raised a sheep in FFA, that relationship ended badly. About 10 years ago he started writing down jokes, ideas and stories in a text document called "Stand Up". He never thought I'd actually do stand up, it was a bucket list thing. But a fateful email he sent to the Improv spiraled into something he loves. He don't plan on ever stopping! Hopefully you'll want to keep coming and see him!

Dexter C Givens Jr: Tall and skinny with unforgettable dark skin and his signature glasses: Dexter Givens doesn’t look much like a comedic threat. Fortunately for you, surprise is the spice of comedy and Dexter is one helluva chef. That southern flavor comes from Monroe, LA, where our favorite up and coming legend was made. He moved to Fort Worth, TX in his adolescence, blessed with the hereditary stage presence of a preacher father and storyteller mother. Dexter considers them his biggest source of comedic inspiration, which is the politically correct way of saying he’s going to have your stomach hurting when he tells all of the family business. It’s all love. Contrary to what you may have heard, Dexter can indeed fight...and read. He served in the United States Marine Corp while pursuing his degree in Broadcast Journalism. You could say he always wanted to be in front of the people, he just prefers telling jokes to catching a bullet. Dexter finds additional inspiration in the likes of Chris Rock, Richard Pryor, and Eddie Murphy. His fans are already listing him among the greats and he’s hungry to prove them right. With an infectious smile and contagious laughter, Dexter’s wit and honesty can not be overstated, nor overcompensated... feel free to tell management. Mike Williams: Comedy Magician Mike Williams is considered one of the funniest and most original magicians working today. He thrills audiences around the world, is a three-time “Magician of the Year” award winner and Dallas Observer’s 2018 “Best Dallas Magician”. Mike’s magic and acting skills have also been featured in local and national television commercials. Don’t miss your chance to see what critics describe as “funny beyond belief”.
