Kenny Kane
Combining the frenetic pace of Robin Williams, the absurdity of Steve Martin and the Physicality of Jim Carrey, Kenny Kane fuses stand up and sketch comedy in one action packed show. Kenny takes the audience through "A Day in the life". One thing leads to another on this hilarious action packed show. A multi-dimensional performer draws from his background as a black belt, hip hop dancer, Soccer player and track athlete to create an extremely high-energy and physical show. Kenny's unequivocal force is balanced by authentic stories about family, relationships, teaching children and motivational speaking. After watching a recent performance, an audience member said, "WOW i'm out of breath and i was sitting! Not only was that hilarious it was original and he actually made me think."
Kenny is a regular on the Vegas strip, and has performed in Iraq, Pakistan, and Afghanistan entertaining our troops. He has been heard by millions on the nationally syndicated "Bob and Tom Show", and has been seen regularly as host, stand up, and sketch comedian on UPN's "seriously Unusual Television." Expect great things he will deliver.
Marquez the Greatest
“MARQUEZ THE GREATEST” was selected as a stage name because it states who he is and what he desires to achieve-GREATNESS. Like all those who have made their life work synonymous with their names, Marquez has a mission. A mission coupled with a deep understanding of the Comedian's purpose. That mission? (which he chose to accept) Was assigned to him, one night after a show, when a man came up to The Greatest and said "I planned on committing suicide, but you made me LAUGH so hard. I realized that everybody's going through something." That's when it became clear that the REAL REASON peoople come out for entertainment is for a mental break from their "problems" i.e. "LIFE". As a result the once simple goal of "making people laugh" became his mission. To shed the light of Laughter upon those in the darkness of depression and disappointment, is Marquez's commitment. THE COMMITMENT is to EVER BEING THE CLOWN. The "FOOL" to the Royal Court of his rapidly growing fan base.
The influences of Muhammad Ali, Richard Pryor, and George Carlin are detectable but his brand of humor is all his own. Now residing in Los Angeles, Marquez can be seen at well-known Comedy Clubs as well as Comedy Showcases across the Country.
