JK Hobson - JK Hobson got his start in entertainment touring with Metal band Crisis in the late 90’s and 2000’s, got tired of lifting heavy gear, and performed his first standup set in Los Angeles in 2013. Since moving to Vietnam this Fulbright scholar and co-founder of comedy collective Saigon Funny People has performed in Los Angeles, New York City, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam and was a finalist in the 2018 Vietnam Comedy Competition. He's a high energy performer and has hosted and opened for International standup comedians Dwayne Perkins, Ollie Horn, Dana Alexander, Lars Callieou, Garrett Millerick, Corey Marx, and Mark Lucas and guest-hosted VTV4’s Vietnam Discovery!
Jack Nugget - Jack Nugget is a Vietnamese Biochem major. He came crashing into the comedy scene in 2019 and brought a bit of theatricality that he had borrowed from his past in theater. His style of comedy is experimental, animated, raunchy, graphic and somehow respectfully irreverent.
From sneaking into bars for open mic at 17 to headlining around Vietnam, opening for international acts such as Dwayne Perkins, Joe Vu and Dana Alexander, as well as being the youngest winner of the Vietnam Comedy Competition HCMC 2022 at only 19, Jack Nugget has firmly secured his place as the laughing stock of his family. He is also part of Local Lầy, a creative collective that produces shows merging art in multiple mediums.
Thomas O'Neil - Thomas O'Neil is the 2 time runner up in the Saigon heats comedy competition. His God given deadpan ability allows for in-depth story telling that provides a unique journey that captivates audiences.
