Matthew Star Born and raised in a
smalltown in the backwaters of North
Carolina. Weened on Jesus and
Cigarette Smoke. Much like the kids in

Adolpho Blaire - Adolpho grew up in the
MD suburbs of DC where he idolized Christina
Applegate, big earrings and tall, teased-out
bangs.  After realizing he could imitate the
"Conga" routine off the Gloria Estefan video, he
decided to take some dance classes.  Years
later, he came to the Big Apple a la Madonna
with 37 dollars and a dream and has been
working ever since.  All casting directors,
choreographers, and sugar daddies are
welcome to meet Adolpho after the show

When I Came Out: At 14 to my friends
(although they weren't shocked).  At 19 to my
mom (who shouldnt have been shocked either
but definitely was).
Jym Benzing  Jym has called New York home
for the past twelve years after moving from
Baltimore, where he first mounted his successful one
man show "Walk Like A Man." By day Jym works in
casting but by night he can be seen belting out his
parodies at Marie's Crisis Cafe.  After studying with
Second City here in New York, Jym then went on the
road with Court Jesters Improv Troup.  When the
glamour of playing strip malls in Jersey took it's toll,
Jym found the comfort of booze and fell behind the
scenes writing for other comics. Currently Jym is
writing for "Risa," an up coming television sitcom.  A
former theatre major with 70 shows under his belt,
Jym was also seen in the movies "Hairspray,"  
"Thawing Ice," "Arts," and two years on the 80's
syndicated TV show, "Shakedown."  Jym would like
to thank Jim Beam and Jack Daniels for all thier
support.
Jackie Monahan, a recent transport from
Rhode Island, has lived in NYC for over a year. She
has not only made her way through the comedy
circuit, performing at the hot clubs in Manhattan
including Gotham Comedy Club and Stand Up New
York, but is also producing her own show which runs
twice a month. She started her comedy career as a
performer in an Improv group called Pork Chop
Lounge, which she enjoyed in Providence, RI.
Realizing comedy was in her blood she ventured off to
the Big Apple, with girlfriend in hand. After being
caught in compromising positions with women by her
boyfriends, she decided to jump out of the closet. She
found her mate, a look alike of Ellen Degeneres, and
the two were “civil unionized” in Vermont. They
currently live in their Manhattan apartment with their
beloved dog “Jackson”.
