Brad Ellis – Headliner

Brad Ellis spent four years serving his country in the United States Marine Corps.  After that he spent several years protecting the fine citizens of his community as a Police Officer, but soon realized the free coffee at the local gas station does not justify low pay, dodging bullets and long hours.  The roughest transition from cop to stand up comedy was having to return his mustache.  Much to his surprise, they let him keep the haircut.

Since leaving the badge behind, Brad has made a name for himself in Kansas City where he regularly works and from those feature and headlining sets has produced him work throughout the United States.  He used his distinctive observational style and true to life experiences into work at corporate events and colleges University of Kansas, Kansas State University, University of Arkansas and worked with numerous national touring acts.  Brad was also selected to compete in Season 2 of Comcast TV’s Trial by Laughter.  Unlike his mustache, his act is not one to miss!

 

 

 

Patrick Ryan – Feature

Patrick Ryan is from Kansas City but his energetic and sardonic brand of comedy is now taking him around the country. Patrick’s unique comedic point of view is shaped by his chaotic life as a single parent and struggling to survive in a fast-paced dating world all while trying to keep his sanity. Patrick’s frustrations and the situations he finds himself in keep audiences laughing hard and wanting more. It’s all a big joke and life writes the punchlines.

Patrick has been seen on MTV’s “Unlocking the Truth” as well as a guest on “Talkin’S Hit” with Eddie Ifft.
