Strand favorite Tony V. kicks off the 2010-2011 comedy series. On the short list of Boston's best comedians, in 2010, he joined Denis Leary and the cast of the FX series Rescue Me on a tour of theaters across the county. He's the host of the annual WEEI Whiney Awards, and headlines the Wang Center during Boston's First Night celebration. A frequent guest of Boston radio stations, his long list of credits includes a recurring role on Showtime's Brotherhood, many television appearances (Conan, Seinfeld), and playing opposite Robin Williams in the outrageous 2009 dark comedy World's Greatest Dad. One memorable role: He's the former "spokesgorilla" for American Tourister luggage.

Prolific, white-hot comedian Joe Wong has been on a roll since his first national television appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman in April 2009. Following that well-received performance, Wong signed with high-powered producer/talent manager Rory Rosegarten (who handles Ray Romano and Robert Klein, among others), appeared on Ellen Degeneres' TBS variety special, shot two appearances on Ellen, appeared in the Ricky Gervais film The Invention of Lying, did another Letterman, performed at the National Media Correspondents Dinner in Washington, D.C., and won the 2010 Great American Comedy Festival in Nebraska. Those are impressive accomplishments for a guy who is still learning how to parallel park.

Being English, Peter Bowers brings an international flavor to the US comedy scene, sometimes making you think you are watching Masterpiece Theatre or BBC America. He began performing in sketch comedy as an undergraduate at Cambridge University in the 1960s, and in 2002 returned to the stage after a 35-year absence, spent mostly professoring in chemistry. His rants include inside dirt on the British Royals, odd bits of Shakespeare, spoofs of TV reality shows, and comments on the perils of senior citizenship. In addition to numerous club and some college shows, Bowers has opened for the Young at Heart Chorus as the Somerville Theater, finished third at the Valley of Laughter Contest in Westfield, Mass., and performed at the Boston Comedy Festival.
