SUMMARY:Felicia & Kalliope Comedy
DESCRIPTION:Felicia Madison is an accomplished stand-up comedian\, writer\, producer\, and Creative Director of West Side Comedy Club in New York City. Her comedy special\, Better Than Sex\, is available on Apple TV\, Amazon\, and YouTube\, and she was featured on ABC’s America’s Funniest People. Her one-woman show\, The Miserable Mrs. Madison\, debuted at the Fringe Festival\, and she is currently developing her next special\, Queenager. Throughout her career\, she has shared the stage with some of comedy’s biggest names\, including Zarna Garg\, Jessica Kirson\, Rachel Feinstein\, T.J. Miller\, Bill Burr\, Elon Gold\, Modi\, Jordan Carlos\, and many others. \nAs a child\, Felicia dreamed of becoming a Broadway dancer\, but her parents had other plans. Encouraged to pursue a more traditional career\, she attended the University of Pennsylvania as a pre-med student. Although she followed the practical path\, the performer in her never disappeared. After raising her family and with her children beginning to leave the nest\, Felicia found herself searching for what came next. While exploring new interests\, a friend convinced her to try a stand-up comedy class. She reluctantly agreed\, walked on stage for the first time\, and instantly fell in love. What began as a chance experience quickly became the career she had been waiting for all along. She took the leap into stand-up comedy and proved that it’s never too late to rewrite your story. \nThat same passion for discovering potential extends beyond the stage. As Creative Director of West Side Comedy Club\, Felicia has helped grow one of New York City’s premier comedy venues while mentoring and developing the next generation of comedians through New York Comedy Classes. She believes comedy is a craft that can be taught\, nurtured\, and refined\, and she is passionate about creating opportunities for new voices to find their confidence and their audience. \nToday\, Felicia performs regularly throughout New York and across the country while continuing to write and develop new projects\, including her upcoming special\, Queenager. When she’s not on stage or at the club\, she’s happily embracing her newest role as a devoted dog mom to Milo\, her lovable Cavapoo\, who has quickly become the true star of the household. \nSocial \nInstagram @FeliciaMadisonComedian \nYouTube @FeliciaMadisonComedian \nKalliope Barlis is a New York City stand-up comedian\, former professional golfer\, and three-time best-selling author. She headlines a monthly show at West Side Comedy Club and plays clubs and festivals up and down the East Coast. Her clean\, story-driven act turns hard moments — a loud Greek family dinner\, a blown tournament\, a fear nobody says out loud — into the kind of laugh that actually fixes something.

SUMMARY:Michael Blackson
DESCRIPTION:Shows at 7:00p and 9:30p \nHe has been called one of the most original stand-up comics in the country\, and his performances have audiences laughing in tears. Michael Blackson\, aka: ‘The African King of Comedy’\, has been entertaining audiences all across the country and around the globe for more than a decade. Inspired by the stand-up comedy of Eddie Murphy\, Blackson began to develop his comedic talent in 1992 in the unkind comedy clubs of Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania. \nBlackson’s comedic appeal grew from his involvement with BET’s ComicView series\, HBO’s Def Comedy Jam\, Showtime at Harlem\, and Live in Hollywood. However\, it was in a Los Angeles comedy club where Blackson got his big break. Blackson was performing at the Comedy Store where actor/director Ice Cube was in attendance to see comedian Mike Epps perform. But after experiencing Blackson’s performance\, Ice Cube invited the young comic for a reading… and the rest is a comedic mark in history! Blackson’s outstanding and unforgettable performance in the smash hit comedy\, Next Friday\, drew praise and a fan following like no other. \nAfter his scene-stealing performance in Next Friday\, fans wanted more\, and in 2005\, Blackson did not disappoint. He released his top-selling sketch comedy CD entitled\, Modasucka\, Welcome to America. With Blackson\, the work never stops. Along with special guest appearances on some of the hottest music videos\, Blackson stole the stage on P. Diddy’s Bad Boys of Comedy on HBO and starred in a commercial for the Chappelle Show on Comedy Central. There’s no mistaking Blackson for any other comedian when he takes the stage. \nAnd what about those Dashikis? When he takes the stage\, clad in the finest Dashikis the Motherland has to offer\, “The African King of Comedy” is born! Along with his film and television endeavors\, Blackson continues to entertain his fans as the headliner for live shows at comedy clubs\, universities\, and special events\, bringing his one-of-a-kind\, must-see stand-up performance to audiences all across the country and around the world.

SUMMARY:Truth Hurts
DESCRIPTION:Philadelphia’s own Truth Hurts is a cultural commentator\, confidence coach\, and digital thought leader whose work is grounded in radical honesty\, accountability\, and emotional clarity. \nRaised in an environment where stability was not guaranteed\, Truth learned early how to read people\, shoulder responsibility\, and navigate complexity long before adulthood. Those formative experiences shaped both his emotional intelligence and his instinct to listen deeply. Long before social media\, people were drawn to confide in him — often sharing their most personal truths without prompting. He considers himself a teacher\, a challenger\, and a translator. His perspective is prodigious not because it is theoretical\, but because it is lived. His wisdom is the result of learned experience\, sharpened by reflection\, and driven by a desire to strike chords — not for attention\, but for transformation. Truth doesn’t simply speak; he stays with the message until it lands. That voice has resonated widely. Through his digital platform @2truthhurts357\, Truth has built a community of over 1.1 million followers\, engaging audiences with content that challenges emotional complacency and reframes how people approach love\, accountability\, and self-worth. He is also the host of the Nothing But the Truth Podcast and BTW\, where he expands these conversations in long-form\, offering clarity\, context\, and unfiltered dialogue. Accountability sits at the center of his philosophy. He believes growth begins with self-examination and that self-worth requires discipline\, boundaries\, and clarity. His approach to love rejects fantasy and saviorism in favor of emotional responsibility and intentional choice. Beyond his public platforms\, Truth’s impact is deeply personal. His one-on-one life consulting sessions continue to thrive\, with clients seeking his guidance for relationship clarity\, confidence building\, and emotional alignment — often citing tangible\, life-altering shifts as a result of the work. Marriage and fatherhood marked a defining shift\, grounding his voice in purpose and leadership. What once required survival evolved into direction. Today\, his influence reaches millions\, with audiences crediting his work for helping them leave unhealthy relationships\, reclaim confidence\, and redefine love through accountability rather than attachment. Truth Hurts is authentic\, unapologetic\, and deeply intentional.He is an acquired taste — brutally honest\, emotionally intelligent\, and committed to saying what others won’t\, because the truth\, when understood\, has the power to change lives.

SUMMARY:Aries Spears
DESCRIPTION:Ever since New York native Aries Spears was 14 years old\, he has been a force to be reckoned with in the comedy scene throughout America. His quick wit\, charisma and ferociously aggressive style of comedy have earned him critical acclaim\, high accolades\, and above all\, a busy schedule. From being a regular on Fox’s Mad TV\, starring in feature films\, appearing on a number of national talk shows\, and continually touring the country where he continually sells out each and every city\, Aries’ talents are widespread as he just passed the 3 million spins played on Pandora and his podcast is one of the “Musts” in the US. \nThis past summer\, Aries guest starred in CNN’s “See It Loud” new summer series on the history of Black Television which was one of their hit docuseries of 2023\, alongside Amanda Seales\, Da’Vinchi\, Debbie Allen\, Deon Cole\, Desus & Mero\, Gabrielle Union\, Jimmie Walker\, Judge Greg Mathis\, Kevin Frazier\, Loni Love\, Lynn Whitfield\, Mo’Nique\, Naturi Naughton\, Omari Hardwick\, Ray J\, Ruben Studdard\, Sherri Shepherd\, Tatyana Ali\, Tiffany Pollard\, Tisha Campbell\, Vivica A. Fox and many more. \nAs a principal cast member on Fox’s hit sketch comedy show Mad TV\, Aries brought a fresh\, hip style to the already-edgy program from the third through the tenth season. The producers made full use of many of Aries’s talents by calling on him frequently to create new hilarious characters and write sketches where he thrived for eight seasons. \nSome of the many recurring characters that Aries is famous for on the show include: Belma Buttons\, Bill Cosby\, Jesse Jackson\, Mike Tyson\, Walter (Crackheads)\, Reggie (Erascist)\, Dollar Bill Montgomery\, Shaquille O’Neal\, The Klumps\, Michael Jackson\, Sisqo\, Evander Holyfield\, El Diablo Negro and more. Aries also boasts a number of uproarious impersonations on the show that include James Brown\, Al Pacino\, and his childhood idol Eddie Murphy. The Aries-branded sketch “Talkin’ American” was Mad TV’s most popular bit\, keeping fans tuned in and boosting Mad’s ratings impressively on Saturday night. \nAries has also found great success in the world of feature films. At the age of 17\, after being spotted in a comedy club\, Aries landed a part in the movie Home of Angels which eventually led to a starring role alongside John Leguizamo in TriStar’s The Pest followed by the notable role as Cuba Gooding\, Jr.’s brother in Columbia’s blockbuster hit\, Jerry Maguire. \nAries’ fierce momentum paved the way from features to tv and his eight seasons on MadTV. Aries continues to spread his comedic wings with the development of feature film projects — in addition to TV — which he is currently involved in writing. He is presently developing a feature project based on an original character that he created on Mad TV\, as well as a thriller about a young black man immersed in hip-hop culture. Additionally\, Aries has made appearances on many talk shows including: Loveline\, Vibe\, Keenen Ivory Wayans\, Soul Train and Late Friday. He has also lent his voice to an animated character on C-Bear and Jamal and had a recurring stint on Fox’s The Best Damn Sports Show Period\, where he created some of the show’s funniest characters during his short time there. \nAries maintains a strong connection to his African roots and is involved in many charitable events\, including a number of organizations that help abused women. He feels blessed to have been able to achieve everything that he has\, but he in no way intends on stopping there.

SUMMARY:Aries Spears
DESCRIPTION:Ever since New York native Aries Spears was 14 years old\, he has been a force to be reckoned with in the comedy scene throughout America. His quick wit\, charisma and ferociously aggressive style of comedy have earned him critical acclaim\, high accolades\, and above all\, a busy schedule. From being a regular on Fox’s Mad TV\, starring in feature films\, appearing on a number of national talk shows\, and continually touring the country where he continually sells out each and every city\, Aries’ talents are widespread as he just passed the 3 million spins played on Pandora and his podcast is one of the “Musts” in the US. \nThis past summer\, Aries guest starred in CNN’s “See It Loud” new summer series on the history of Black Television which was one of their hit docuseries of 2023\, alongside Amanda Seales\, Da’Vinchi\, Debbie Allen\, Deon Cole\, Desus & Mero\, Gabrielle Union\, Jimmie Walker\, Judge Greg Mathis\, Kevin Frazier\, Loni Love\, Lynn Whitfield\, Mo’Nique\, Naturi Naughton\, Omari Hardwick\, Ray J\, Ruben Studdard\, Sherri Shepherd\, Tatyana Ali\, Tiffany Pollard\, Tisha Campbell\, Vivica A. Fox and many more. \nAs a principal cast member on Fox’s hit sketch comedy show Mad TV\, Aries brought a fresh\, hip style to the already-edgy program from the third through the tenth season. The producers made full use of many of Aries’s talents by calling on him frequently to create new hilarious characters and write sketches where he thrived for eight seasons. \nSome of the many recurring characters that Aries is famous for on the show include: Belma Buttons\, Bill Cosby\, Jesse Jackson\, Mike Tyson\, Walter (Crackheads)\, Reggie (Erascist)\, Dollar Bill Montgomery\, Shaquille O’Neal\, The Klumps\, Michael Jackson\, Sisqo\, Evander Holyfield\, El Diablo Negro and more. Aries also boasts a number of uproarious impersonations on the show that include James Brown\, Al Pacino\, and his childhood idol Eddie Murphy. The Aries-branded sketch “Talkin’ American” was Mad TV’s most popular bit\, keeping fans tuned in and boosting Mad’s ratings impressively on Saturday night. \nAries has also found great success in the world of feature films. At the age of 17\, after being spotted in a comedy club\, Aries landed a part in the movie Home of Angels which eventually led to a starring role alongside John Leguizamo in TriStar’s The Pest followed by the notable role as Cuba Gooding\, Jr.’s brother in Columbia’s blockbuster hit\, Jerry Maguire. \nAries’ fierce momentum paved the way from features to tv and his eight seasons on MadTV. Aries continues to spread his comedic wings with the development of feature film projects — in addition to TV — which he is currently involved in writing. He is presently developing a feature project based on an original character that he created on Mad TV\, as well as a thriller about a young black man immersed in hip-hop culture. Additionally\, Aries has made appearances on many talk shows including: Loveline\, Vibe\, Keenen Ivory Wayans\, Soul Train and Late Friday. He has also lent his voice to an animated character on C-Bear and Jamal and had a recurring stint on Fox’s The Best Damn Sports Show Period\, where he created some of the show’s funniest characters during his short time there. \nAries maintains a strong connection to his African roots and is involved in many charitable events\, including a number of organizations that help abused women. He feels blessed to have been able to achieve everything that he has\, but he in no way intends on stopping there. Given the extreme growing success rate of action comedies coming out of Hollywood\, it’s safe to say that Aries Spears will be in demand for quite some time.
