Comedians

If you aren’t familiar with Ben Roy, he’s been taking comedy audiences by storm since 2004, bringing an unparalleled energy and unique voice to the stage. Often compared to Lewis Black or Bill Hicks due to his passionate, ranting approach, Roy has a style that is definitively his own.

Roy cut his comedic teeth in Denver at Comedy Works. Since then, he has been selected to perform at many comedy festivals and has been featured on HBO’s Funny as Hell series; as well as on the Comedy Central shows Adam DeVine’s House Party, Corporate, @midnight, and This Is Not Happening. Ben has released three stand-up comedy albums and was listed as one of Variety’s Top 10 Comics to Watch in 2015.

Along with fellow Denver Comedians Adam Cayton-Holland and Andrew Orvedahl (who collectively perform as The Grawlix), Ben, wrote and starred in TruTV’s original comedy series Those Who Can’t, which ran for three seasons and can now be streamed on HBO Max. In addition to stand-up comedy, Roy is a prolific musician, currently the lead singer of SPELLS.

Joe Shelby is an author, actor, and stand-up comedian who got his start at Go Bananas Comedy Club in 2004. His boundary-pushing style is a blend of one-liners, act-outs, and experimental humor that connects with audiences everywhere. A year after his big start, he braved the cold winds of Chicago to study improv at places such as: The Second City, iO, The Annoyance Theater and Columbia College Chicago, where he majored in acting. In 2009 Shelby’s fan base grew as the Chicago Reader voted him “Reader’s Choice Best Comedian.”

In 2014 Joe set off on another adventure moving into his van and toured across the country where he was soon swept up by Hollywood. Making his mark in the LaLa land, he has since been seen in GQ, VH1, The Huffington Post, Buzzfeed and over 8,921 photobombs. Learning from his own struggles, Joe runs a monthly comedy show at the Los Angeles Theater Center where 100% of all proceeds go towards aiding the less fortunate of Skid Row. At this very moment, he is eating cheese.

Cincinnati native, Wayne Memmott, is a comedian who likes to share stories about his past career as a teacher, his family, and his wife, and how much fun they bring to his life. Wayne’s only hope on stage is that his life stories will bring as much joy to you as they have to him.

When not on stage as a comedian, Wayne works as the lead producer/director of operations of Bombs Away! Comedy, a production company based out of Cincinnati that brings the best independent comedy shows to the best breweries and bars in Cincinnati.

Karinne Turnbow is a comedian and performer from Cincinnati Oh. Her high energy and stories from her time in Cincinnati is an act not to be missed. Karinne is a Bombs Away! Comedy regular performer.
