About our comics:

Salma Zaky
Originally from the Bay Area, Salma Zaky moved to Los Angeles to attend college at UCLA, where she was lucky enough to perform alongside stellar comedians including Maria Bamford, Ali Wong, Nikki Glaser, and Nicole Byer. Salma has been featured in Boston's Women in Comedy Festival in 2017, SF Sketchfest in 2019, and Floodwater Comedy Festival and Aspen Laugh Festival in 2020. She now resides in Denver, Colorado for a better quality of life and air.

Edward Bell
Edward Bell is a stand up comedian based out of Denver, CO. He has written for the Hard Times. He hosts the weekly podcast OK Ringo. He is part of the sketch comedy group Not Made for TV. He used to live in a van, but now he doesn't. There were too many complaints.

Jeremiah Chinggee Chinegwu
Jeremiah is a self proclaimed comedy nomad. Having served in the United States Navy he has been able to perform his outstanding brand of comedy all across the country opening for the likes of Tom Green and Nick Thune. Between stand up and his YouTube page "THE JEREMIAH PROJECT" odds are you're never too far away to hear his unique takes on race, relationships and pop culture.

Lee Robinson
Lee Robinson is a Denver based stand-up comedian, writer and fun-loving human confetti cannon. Lee's comedic style is playful with a dose of biting wit, and they talk about everything from queer dating to her unique upbringing in a small Missouri town. Lee loves bringing incredible and wide-ranging comedic voices to the stage through her weekly stand-up comedy show, Playing Favorites, at Rise Comedy. They also host and produce DYKETOPIA, a Queer Comedy Experience, celebrating queer comedy, drag, and outlandishly extra games.
