""Laugh your Kass off" is not just a catchy phrase, It's been my life motto. I started doing comedy after 30 years of dreaming about it, and finally one day I decided to follow that dream, and what a ride it's been so far. I have been blessed to find talent in something I love to do. My comedy is very reality based, I take the thoughts of many and say them to everyone, add a little "shock value" with a little self-deprecation, and you're in for a hilarious ride to Laughsville. As a female comedian, my views aren't the traditional, "my boyfriend is so gross". I take the female side of humor to xtremes: that might be because I'm a big 'ol dyke. So, if you can't laugh about it, don't watch it! I have performed with some of the best - Rodney Hood, Alex Reymundo, Mr. Microphone (early years) - at some of the top clubs: The Tempe Improv, The Comedy Spot, The Sets (Tempe, AZ) as well as The 8th St Comedy Club in Odessa, TX. I am a successful producer of various gay comedy shows including Dyke Cuts in and around the Phoenix area. I love what I do and I'm pretty damn funny too: what more could you ask for?"   Now available! Kass McPherson, live on DVD: "Just Touch It Once, Baby..."

Laugh, and the world laughs with you... It's all our son's fault. He took a stand-up comedy course at Scottsdale Community College, under Dee Ann Kinkade, and enjoyed it tremendously. However, after the showcase at the end of the show, he discovered a tremendous lack of opportunities for up-and-coming comedians to practice in front of a live audience, and hone their craft. There were, basically, only two professional clubs in Phoenix, and stage time at those was extremely limited. Hence, Comedy SlamFest was born. This was a comedy contest, that offered comedians stage time, without the requirement that they must bring audience members often found elsewhere. Indeed, we encouraged comics to come to the event; they were admitted free, and much networking, etc. ensued, helping lead to the creation of many other comedy events throughout the valley. The contest, meanwhile, consisted of ten weeks of heats, with the winners going through to the Grand Final, where the best comics from Arizona and beyond faced each other for a large cash prize. It was a roaring success, with any number of memorable moments (good, bad and ugly!), and ran for four seasons at The Sets in Tempe, from June 2004. The winners of the events were, in order: James Hoenscheidt, Tony Stirpe, Steve Krause and Kass McPherson, all amazing performers. But over the course of SlamFest, we realised there was a deep well of comedic talent in the valley. SlamFest came to the natural end of its life in mid-2005, but that did not signal the end of our involvement in the comedy community. We also ran a series of shows at the Mazatzal Casino in Payson, staged an ongoing open-mic event at the late, lamented Cluzoz bar in North Phoenix, and continue to put on events at Big Daddy's North - most recently our "Funny Honeys" show, which featured all-female comedians, and played to a packed house. We also have a large roster of comics available for hire at private events, such as weddings, corporate parties, etc. With several hundred names in our database, we can find the perfect artiste, whatever your needs, tastes and requirements. We are currently working with the USO, putting together an overseas tour package, something with which we are immensely proud and excited to be involved. Who would have though one class would lead to all this? Early Bird Special The Early Bird Special Comedy Sketch Troupe was founded by John Janezic and Tom Koelbel one crazy day in the Family Bathroom at the Arizona Mills Mall, as they prepared to perform yet another of their wacky sketches. Tom and John felt the management of their troupe sadly lacked the skills needed to move them ahead on their journey towards fame, riches and the American Way. So the boys started their own Troupe. Early Bird Special provides their audiences with Sketch Comedy, Improvisational skills, musical parodies and an enthusiasm that is infectiou - you can't help but smile, laugh and giggle when they're around! The troupe members come from all walks of life, some with incredible backgrounds in theatre, film and television. For more information, visit the Early Bird Special site Comic Intervention Comic Intervention are Karen Seltz, Jo Anna Larson, and...whoever else they can harass into assisting. They recently released (or, perhaps "let escape" is closer!) their wacky feature, Comic Intervention: The Film (shot on video), to great acclaim - but as yet, no boatloads of money from Hollywood for a big-budget remake, probably starring Nicolas Cage wearing false breasts. That can, however, surely only be a matter of time...
