JESENIA BAILEY- is a Nuyorican comedian/actress. She made my comic debut in 2005 at the
Laugh Factory. Since then, she has performed my stand-up comedy act at the Caroline's, the Comic
Strip Live, the Gotham Comedy Club, the NY Comedy Club, and Stand-up NY. Her humor and sense
of non-self respect have originated from me having a “Crazy Loca Familia”, which come to life as
characters in her act. Jesenia speaks my mind on subjects where others dare not venture, because
when she is on stage she is the "Master of Disaster", in a non-threatening but funny way.

Festival" to be held at the Bank Street Theater in NYC. To purchase tickets, visit www.myspace.

HARRIET HALLOWAY - was born and raised in Manhattans Upper East Side. As a child she drank
up vintage television sitcoms such as I Dream of Jeanie, I Love Lucy, Bob Newhart, and The Carol
Burnett show, which influenced her tremendously making her a perpetual trouble maker, class clown
and the consummate glamour-girl indefinitely.
As a teenager Harriet, much to the dismay of her parents, decided to leave school and accede to the
beckoning lights of the stage, and quickly became a fixture in New York's downtown burlesque
scene as a performer and emcee at honky-tonks all over town. The jail bait blond soon realized that
her humor was her biggest asset of all and she snowballed into a career as a full time stand up
comedian developing a brand of humor that was sadistic and irreverent but with an old fashioned
nostalgia which was a call back to the sitcom idols of her youth.

When asked, she describes her own humor as "endearingly offensive" and others have remarked, "Harriet is a throwback to the
old fashioned entertainer but with a sharp modern tongue and a casual approachability." Through her unique "old school" style
coupled with her quick wit and dirty mouth, she immediately earned the praise and respect of the heavy hitters and veterans of
the entertainment industry becoming a favorite in comedy clubs nation wide.
Along the way, Harriet has been one of New York's most popular underground "It" girls, seen and heard all over town known
for a sense of fashion as big and loud as her mouth. She has been a muse for artists, fashion designers, fashion photographers
and musicians; she has studied with some of the most prestigious acting teachers in the world, starred in several music videos.
She has been a pin-up and editorial model, appeared in dozens of magazines and has acted in independent films and local theater.

PEACHES RODRIGUEZ - A Latina Stand-up Comedian The Hip Hop soccer mom!!!
A veteran of comedy in the New York city clubs she says, “I’m energized with the excitement that
goes on in the moment between myself and my audiences! ”Peaches, her real name, Mariette, really
got her start in show business as a BREAK-dancer in feature films like “Beat Street” and numerous
MTV music videos.
She turned to comedy only after a knee injury forced her out of dancing. In the late 90’s Rodriguez
joined an Improv group “Improv This!” and also took comedy-writing classes. Eventually, she decided
to embark on a full time career as a stand-up comic. Using her past experience as a dancer, Rodriguez
re-funneled that powerful energy into comedy, which has proven to work very well for her. She
quickly became one of the most popular comics in New York City and has been featured in many
national TV shows and Festivals. She’s hugely popular with Colleges as well.

I never thought that anything I was saying would ever be relevant to colleges, but I recently played SUNY Purchase in upstate
NY and got a standing ovation! Somehow, what I’ve been saying seems to resonate with younger audiences. Maybe it’s
because what I’m doing just cuts right through to the absolute truth! and they recognize it immediately and love it.
A HIGHPOINT AND STAMP OF APPROVAL.- A while back Dave Chappelle said, “Man, you’re really funny! You better
keep performing ‘cause there are not many Latinas that do what you do!”
That made me really proud coming from him. Indeed she has done well on this advice. Everywhere Peaches performs, she is
requested back on all of her engagements! Needless to say....Her career is Rocking!!!
GIVING BACK TO THE U.S.O. FOR THE TROOPS- Peaches has also been well received overseas. A few summers ago
she traveled to the Middle East where she volunteered for the USO comedy tour to support our troops. She helped keep our
troops in good spirits by spreading her laughter throughout Afghanistan, Qatar, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Peaches quoted:
“Touring for the USO is the most rewarding and emotional tour I have ever worked...the appreciation we get from the troops
is deeply moving.
Some of Peaches’ inspirations have come from comedians such as Dave Chappell, Chris Rock, Freddie Prinze Classic SNL,
Mad TV, and not to mention HBO’s brilliant “Curb your enthusiasm”.
A MUST SEE! OVER 16 THOUSAND HITTS AND COUNTING!

And of course the Upcoming Spectacle of Spectacles! The CoMiC OddiTiEs! The Only 3 Ring Comedy Show in The World!
Julio began doing Improvisation under the tutelage of Improv Legend The Late Great Mr. Martin Friedberg at the NYC
Improvisation in the late 70’s at the age of 15. Martin quickly took Julio under his wing and literally talked him into doing Stand-
up. Quickly adapting, Julio became Popular in the early 80’s on the NYC Comedy Scene and joined the U.S. Army in 1981 where
he often performed in local Military events with visiting U.S.O shows until 1985. Upon arriving home to NYC in 1985, he did
Comedy on and off and studied selected college courses through a military education program. In 1987 he returned to Germany
to live and work there for AAFEES-EUROPE and continued to perform whenever the opportunity came up when the U.S.O came
to visit and in local clubs. He returned to NYC in 1994 and continued to perform and network never really happy with what the
Comedy Scene had become and followed with a few appearances in local clubs. He decided to take matters into his own hands
with the creation of COMEDY PIE and has since empowered several Comics to learn from the bottom up how to produce a
comedy show and has developed Talent to move them up & on to new experiences in comedy.
COMEDY PIE offers opportunities that no other Production company in Comedy offers, chiefly to work one on one with those
who want to do the work it takes to bring their comedy to another level and teach the business side of comedy to empower
comics.
COMEDY PIE has given many comics their first paying gigs, first hosting, Featuring and Headlining Gigs as well. Julio plans to
take over the Comedy world one stage at a time.

Her many venues have included: The Wolf’s Den at Mohegan Sun, Comedy Studio (Boston), NY Improv, the Broadway Comedy Club (NYC) & The Laugh Factory (NYC) as part of the “Broads of Broadway” show, Yuk Yuks International: Toronto & Halifax, Joe Franklin’s (NYC), the Underground Comedy Club: (NYC), Brew Ha Ha Comedy Club at City Steam |
