Rafi Gonzalez is a stand-up comedian from Puerto Rico known for his conversational style and material that centers around his experiences with American culture. Originally finding success as the lead singer of a nationally touring rock band, Gonzalez switched gears in 2015 and exploded onto the New England and Boston comedy scenes. There has been no looking back. After years of performances, Rafi has developed a strong regional following in the New England area and the east coast. From headlining major comedy clubs, to having millions of views on social media, Rafi will do anything and everything to bring laughter to the masses. In 2021, he was filmed in San Antonio for HBO MAX as part of the Ha Comedy Festival. He opens regularly around the country for actor/comedian Michael Rapaport, as well as comedian/author Phoebe Robinson.

Coast Guard veteran Jody Sloane cut her entertainment teeth doing her sit-down shtick as a cheeky “conducktor” named Penny Wise on the Boston Duck Tours. Her duck tour experience — 4,000 tours — was the perfect tee-up to becoming a stand-up comic. She’s now a regular at comedy venues including Headliners Comedy Clubs throughout New England, Gotham Comedy Club in New York City, Comix Comedy Club at Mohegan Sun, Nick’s Comedy Stop, plus roadhouses, Elks Clubs and dives from Portland to New York.

Alex Mann is a Boston-based stand-up comedian, SAG-AFTRA actor, and long-time law enforcement veteran who blends blue-collar storytelling with sharp crowd work and improv.
