Kathryn Gongaware is a standup comedian, writer, actress and menace, sometimes in reverse order. She’s known for sharp observational insight, an unfortunate amount of self-awareness, and uniquely wild stories, many of which spring from teaching yoga in jail. Kathryn is a regular at Laugh Factory, Zanies, and Second City, has performed at clubs throughout the country including The Comedy Cellar in NYC, and has opened for Mo Amer, Erica Rhodes, Michael Palascak, Cipha Sounds Andy Hendrickson, Kevin Bozeman and other national headliners. You can catch her on social @kathryngong, where her mother suggests she is “undoing the work of generations of women before her”. (Alright, Diane.)

Blake Burkhart is a comedian and writer from Chicago’s north side. He is a regular at all Chicago Clubs and local showcases, and regularly headlines at comedy clubs throughout the Midwest. His album Atlantis reached #1 on the comedy iTunes Charts in 2018 and he is in the works on his next album which he hopes will go triple platinum. Good bowler too.
