After climbing the corporate ladder in his family’s South Florida car business, Dave Williamson decided he liked making his customers smile, but LOVED making them laugh. Since then, he has excelled in almost every domestic Comedy Festival, making the finals or “Best of The Fest” in the World Series of Comedy, Boston Comedy Festival, San Francisco Comedy Competition, Big Sky Comedy Festival, the SLO Comedy Festival, and several others. Shortly after being named “Best Comedian in Miami” by the Miami New Times, Dave packed up his family in a 25 foot travel trailer. They traveled with him while he performed all over North America, eventually settling in Los Angeles after 18 months of touring. This trip was documented in a series of shorts by Nickelodeon.
Ali Kareem is a comedian based in Denver, known for his sharp wit and engaging storytelling. Born in Baghdad, Ali’s remarkable journey began as an interpreter for the U.S. Military in Iraq, a role that eventually led to his U.S. citizenship. Today, Ali continues to captivate audiences throughout Colorado, delivering laughter with every performance.
Rebeca Trejo is a Denver-based standup comedian with a style once described by Josh Blue as “slam poetry with punchlines.” Born in Venezuela, raised in Puerto Rico, Rebeca migrated to the mainland in 2014 to escape both communism and colonialism, so naturally she fled to…Louisiana. Now living in Denver, Rebeca performs stand-up comedy in both English and Spanish. She hosts and produces Me Meo Comedy Show, the only Spanish-language comedy showcase in Denver.
Hailing from Omaha, Georgia Comstock has an uncanny gift for blending razor-sharp writing with an effortlessly disarming Midwestern charm that sneaks up on you- then floors you with laughter.
