JON STETSON
Mind Reading has never been this funny!
He fits the bill for any event requiring a unique and breath-taking act. A colorful and compelling personality, Jon is part comedian, part magician, part mentalist, and part illusionist. Stetson has been wowing audiences all over the world for the better part of 25 years. His four appearances at the White House are a testament to the fact that there is no other act like Jon's. Meeting planners worldwide know Jon as a true professional who will go the distance to craft a special event including trademark "reveals" and customized illusions.


DON GAVIN
Don has performed in 25 different countries, at over 150 colleges, and more than 200 corporate functions in the past three years. Robin Williams, Denis Leary, Martin Sheen and Sandra Bullock are just a few of the performers with whom Don has worked. One of the fastest and funniest comedians working today, Gavin has delighted crowds with his unique brand of comedy throughout the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, Australia, and on comedy tours to Germany, Sicily, and Japan. He has starred in several of the world's most prominent comedy festivals, including Montreal and Edinburgh. Don's breakneck-speed approach to humor generates consistently sustained laughter. Australia Network TV says, "No one-absolutely no one does to an audience what this performer does. It was an hour of brilliance. Side-holding laughter throughout-Gavin has to be seen in person to be believed." Don's universal humor and "everyman" style has an immediate appeal to all ages and audiences. Throughout the entertainment and comedy community, Don is reverently and affectionately known as the "Godfather of Boston Comedy."


CHRIS ZITO
Chris was an integral part of the early Boston Comedy scene which gave the nation so many of its comedic greats. Chris traces his roots back to the infamous Ding Ho with Lenny Clark, Barry Crimmins, Stephen Wright and the birth of the Boston Comedy Club scene. Chris has appeared on MTV, Showtime, Comedy Central, USA Network and Comcast on Demand. Chris has also been in radio for over 20 years, recently on WXLO 104.5 FM in Worcester (the Zito & Jen Show) and on the WODS Oldies 103 Morning Show "Zito & Blake". His hilarious delivery and observational insights keep you laughing long after the show has ended.

JOHN TURCO
Within seconds of flashing his signature expression, a twisting of the face that suggests a mixture of confusion, incomprehension, and disbelief, Turco's audiences know they are in for something good. With a killer comedy routine ten years in the making, John has become one of our most requested acts. Clean, accessible topical comedy is John's forte, and his background in the corporate world makes him a top choice for your next professional gathering.

MIKE COLEMAN
Yesterday's star of WBZ's "Dumb Guy" commercials is today's top notch comedian/impressionist and song parody king. Mike's rapid-fire song parodies leave audiences gasping for air - some of his punchlines you'll get in two seconds, and some you'll be trying to figure out two years from now. Coleman's hysterical material is designed that way. No other act combines killer impressions of Tom Brokaw, Sean Connery, and Jim Morrison with standup comedy, Shakespeare and song parodies (Walkin' in Medford, Charlestown Girl).


BRIAN POWERS
Brian is widely recognized as a clean comic whose act illuminates the laughter inherent to growing old, raising kids and being married for many years. As The Boston Herald states, "..Brian Powers regaled the audience with tales about a blue collar guy adjusting to mid-life, middle-class suburbia.." The Boston Globe writes that, " ..the audience was coaxed into chortles ..as Brian Powers takes a blue-collar-ish look at life's myriad confusions.. and possesses uncanny timing.." and The Patriot Ledger adds, "..his tales sparked howling recognition from the crowd..". Brian brings a unique perspective to the field of stand-up comedy; he has become one of the most sought after stand-up comedians in the New England area.

JIM COLLITON
Growing up in a house with five sisters and no brothers, Jim has turned his years of wearing hand-me-down Sassoon jeans into a hilarious comedy routine. Jim's love for performing comes across every time he takes the stage with his dry delivery and unique improvisational skills.



TOM BRISCOE
Tom Briscoe was born to be a comedian. For starters, he looks like the love child of David Letterman and Kevin James. His act is a tasty slice of Americana, covering everything from buying clothes in a big & tall shop to being waylaid by airport security to selling "No Soliciting" signs door to door. His many years of experience in the corporate world have led to his being in demand at Fortune 500 events across the country.


DJ HAZARD
Hazard's material will likely be studied by scientists long after he's gone. Only his brain could invent such offbeat, highly intelligent and outrageous humor, punctuated by song parodies. Don't let his intimidating looks fool you - Hazard is comedy's gentle giant, in addition to being a Boston standup legend for over 20 years. DJ's first comedy album, 1993's "Lock Up the Planet When You Leave," is still a favorite on the Dr. Demento radio show, and next year's "El Hazardo Rides Again" is destined to become a classic for a new generation of fans.

TOM COTTER
If laughter is the best medicine, prepare to be heavily medicated! Tom's high energy, cerebral style has landed him on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, and a role in Miramax's Next Stop Wonderland. You may recognize Tom from his many commercials, including Pepsi, McDonald's, Doritos and Amstel Lite. We'd like you to recognize him as the perfect entertainer for your next event.


KERRI LOUISE
Who can turn the world on with her smile? Mary Tyler Moore. But who can turn the world on with her hysterical stories, original humor, and boisterous characters? Kerri Louise can. High energy, commanding, and versatile, Kerri can entertain any audience with her warmth and razor-sharp wit. So it's no wonder her recent credits include the pilot for NBC's Last Comic Standing with Jay Mohr and Comedy Central's Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn. Kerri takes her audiences on a wild ride through the life of a Generation X mother of twins.

MATT BLAKE
We first saw Matty back in 1996, shortly after he left a stint with Improv Boston. His infinitely likeable boy-next-door charm played well as a standup comic, and before long he was on Boston radio airwaves, with stints on the WXLO and STAR 93.7 morning shows, and then with his own wildly successful "Rocco and Matty Show" on WAAF drive time. The voice behind many VH1 programs, Matty currently juggles his acting career (Collinsville, Clint Eastwood's Mystic River) with performing his clean, intelligent standup comedy at clubs, resorts and special events.

ACE ACETO
He may look young, but for the past decade Ace Aceto has been entertaining audiences with his unique and edgy twist on topics ranging from Buffalo Wings to Catholic Guilt. Ace energetically works the stage adding lots of audience participation to his shows. You never know what may come out of his mouth next - but rest assured that Ace will always let the crowd in on the real fun. No stranger to the corporate world, Ace has been involved in various facets of the pharmaceutical and medical industries for over a decade.


TONY V.
First, it's the look - pure comedy. Then, it's the killer delivery. By the time Tony delivers his signature line, "Pardon my appearance - but this is what I look like," audiences have locked their seats in the "upright" position and are hanging on every word. Boston has rallied around few comedians the way they've embraced Tony V. First Night Boston. Election Night headliner. Tony V's Lost at Sea Comedy Cruises. Discovery Channel's Big Dig special. Tony's credits are a pure slice of Bostonian culture. Tony's credits also include Rescue Me with Denis Leary and Showtime's The Brotherhood. One call to our office and you'll see why he was recently featured in both Boston Magazine and the Improper Bostonian magazine.
