Sheila Kay
Sheila Kay is originally from Detroit, Michigan, married, and now a joisey gal!
She started out in show biz at the age of 3 by going to tables in restaurants and engaging people in conversation while they ate their dinner. It was charming until she started eating off their plates! Her mom, who was her first agent, would then drag Sheila back to her own table.
At 6, her parents acquiesced to her talent and gave her enough dance lessons to be the next Sammy Davis Jr.. She took tap, ballet, modern jazz, singing, clarinet, you name it, she did it. In high school, it was drama classes. After school, the theater. Through marriage, and after many years of working at a veterinary hospital and a law office and raising her daughter, she finally found show biz and became a stand-up comic. A friend of Sheila’s told her about a comedy club in Detroit and she worked on her “schtick” until she earned a spot on that stage… and that was just the beginning. She made people laugh with her hilarious stories about life in general.
In fact, she was so sucessful that she was nominated for the 11th & 13th Annual American Comedy Awards. Since then, she has worked in radio, television, movies, and theater and will continue to do so for as long as her audiences will have her.
Sheila has worked in dozens comedy clubs all across the USA, was nominated twice for funniest woman by the American Comedy Awards and has been working cruise ships for the last 10 years.
A few of Sheila’s TV & movie credits: Law & Order SVU, Beverly Hills 90210, Evening at the Improv, commercials, Indie films and more.
Phil Palisoul
Phil Palisoul has been a Professional Comedian™ for more than 25 years. In that time, he’s performed all over the world – from Hong Kong, China to Juno, Alaska. Phil is proud to have gone to Afghanistan to perform for the troops with Comics on Duty and not so proud that he once headlined the Marie Callender’s in Valencia for $100 and a pie. He’s worked with and won the respect of some of the biggest names in comedy, including Jerry Seinfeld, Drew Carey and George Lopez. His list of corporate clients is long and illustrious and peppered with names like GMC, Coca-Cola, and IBM.
Having made dozens of TV appearances, including The Tonight Show, The Late Late Show, two seasons of Last Comic Standing and many more, Phil is no stranger to comedy for the camera. But it was his experience in TV writing & producing that convinced him he would need more than just a mic & a stool to better engage on the screen. So, he’s including funny visual elements created just for his virtual show.
Phil loves to perform live and will do so under safe & sensible circumstances. He has been featured twice at the prestigious, Just for Laughs Comedy Festival, and took first place at The Great American Comedy Festival, in Johnny Carson’s hometown of Norfolk, Nebraska.
Alongside his successful standup career, Phil enjoyed a decade as a TV writer & producer, working for every major network, as well as Comedy Central.
Phil divides his time between traveling a lot, staying home in Denver, CO as much as he can and playing with his cats, Caboodle & Darla and his wife, fellow comedian, Nora Lynch.
* Clean Comedy is a comedy genre that is generally free of: heavy profanity, obscenity, toilet humor, and similarly objectionable material.
THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE EVENT. Should you not be able to attend, please feel free to give your tickets to friends, under the ticket buyers name.
