E-Room Hosts Laugh Riot Comedy Night
The Egyptian Room hosts a comedy night featuring performance by:
Virginia Jones (headliner) — Virginia is a biomass. Mostly carbon. Also a Portland stand-up comic. She has worked as a boxing instructor, a swing dance teacher, a waitress, a DJ, a designer of country and western apparel, and also was the only vegetarian assistant manager Jack-In-The-Box ever had. She likes dancing, playing guitar badly, creating increasingly obscure Halloween costumes, and acting as a comedian and freelance subversive. She’s funnier than John Belushi, Gilda Radner and Bill Hicks put together. She’s funnier than all dead people.
Cody Smith — Cody is a Portland comic who refuses to be labeled by conventional measurements of what is or is not humorous. He is simply a man who wishes to share his innermost convictions through the ancient art of the group chuckle. Come and be reforged in the glorious fire of his magnificent talent and vaguely uncomfortable honesty!
Belinda Carroll — Belinda is a Portland-based comic. In an over-the-top, observational style, she tackles everything from her Missionary Southern Baptist mother, her life as a teenage Lesbian Avenger, to her current incarnation as a fabulous queer femme who missed her calling as Rupaul.
Jimmy Newstetter — Jimmy is, in one word, Truly Brilliant. Jimmy can be seen all over the universe blending a unique style of quick jokes, witty lies, 9th grade drama class, and a genuine love of laughter.
Marcia Belsky — Marcia is a newcomer to the Portland comedy scene. Smart and funny, you will love her dry wit, deadpan sarcasm, and impressive hair.
Hosted with vim and a fair amount of vigor by Whitney Streed.
