George Chen
George Chen has finally found a proper outlet for his brand of sarcasm and self-deprecation. These traits were ill-suited to the other worlds he has occupied… Show more as a musician, writer, and filler of 1099 forms. As a promoter he has organized comedy shows on a moving bus, at a still-life drawing session, and inside a comic book store. As a musician he has played in the bands KIT, Boxleitner and Chen Santa Maria, and for the past 15 years he has run the record label Zum. As a performer he has appeared at Holy F~~k, Venice Underground Comedy, The Business, and the Porchlight Storytelling Series. Other credits: Jandek’s guitar tech.

Trevor Hill
Trevor Hill is a stand-up comedian and writer who sleeps in San Francisco and is awake in a variety of locations. He is co-creator and host of the critically acclaimed, topic-based comedy show Hand to Mouth. He has performed in clubs throughout the United States and England. Trevor has appeared on KOFY TV and has been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle, SF Weekly and Washington Post. Trevor’s humor oscillates between deeply personal material about homeless family members and adolescent trauma to absurd vignettes about Bolivian Phil Collins fans and bayou-dwelling pornographers. He has been described as inventive, candid, engrossing and infertile.

Nicole Calasich
Nicole Calasich is a comedian and writer based out of San Francisco. When she’s not confusing people with her sweet orphan-face and jerk sarcasm combo, she spends her time performing stand-up comedy at the San Francisco Punchline, the San Jose Improv, Rooster T. Feather’s, The Purple Onion and more.

Her comedy takes on hot-button issues like: “How great are avocados, you guys? Seriously, so great. Am I right?” and “Remember Living Single?” It gets deep, guys. For real.

Her past sketch work with Sunshine Fortress and the all female group, Boner Patrol, enjoyed admission to SF Sketchfest three years running and quickly garnered “On the Lookout” status from the SF Weekly, respectively.

She’s an absurdist and a lover of pets as long as she doesn’t have to keep them alive. She can’t wait to meet your dog and/or cat.
