Kara Klenk is a stand-up comic, writer, and actor who got her start in New York City and now calls Los Angeles home. She was named one of Time Out New York’s Top 10 Funniest Women in NYC, and once you see her, you’ll understand why. She’s appeared on Netflix, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, Oxygen, and Hulu, and has written for Netflix, Hulu, MTV, Paramount, and Comedy Central. Most recently, she’s brought her comedic chops to RuPaul’s Drag Race (VH1) and Wipeout (TBS).

He’s also earned recognition in top competitions, including the Seattle International Comedy Competition.

Candy Shaw (née Churilla) began her comedy career studying improv with the Actors Improv Theater in Chapel Hill, NC, while also acting in scripted productions. After producing and starring in her play Sex, Drugs, and Dinner, she moved to the Bay Area, where an improv friend encouraged her to try stand-up at San Francisco’s iconic BrainWash Café open mic. She continued performing and went on to appear on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, place 3rd in California’s Funniest Female Contest, and open for comedians including Mark Curry, Will Durst, Bobcat Goldthwait, Marga Gomez, Ms. Pat, Rob Schneider, and Tom Segura.
