Rich Vos is an incredibly gifted comic who not only has sharp, insightful material, but is also a master at working the crowd. His ability to perform in front of any audience has landed him television shows as varied as being the first white comic on Def Jam to performing on The View. Rich was the breakout star of NBC's Last Comic Standing seasons 1 and 3, was a regular guest on Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn and wrote for Chris Rock when he hosted The Academy Awards in 2005 and is a regular on the Opie and Anthony radio show. Bonnie McFarlane did her first open mic in Vancouver, Canada. The manager of the club told her she should enter a contest, The Search for Canada's Funniest New Comic. She did, and she won. She moved to New York and went on to participate in the second season of NBC's "Last Comic Standing" becoming one of the show's stand-out characters! Vos pulls no punches with his unique, no-holds-barred perspective on relationships, divorce and parenthood. This trio of comedy will appeal to all audiences!
