Coast Guard veteran Jody Sloane cut her entertainment teeth doing her sit-down shtick as a cheeky "conducktor" named Penny Wise on the Boston Duck Tours. Her duck tour experience - 4,000 tours - was the perfect tee-up to becoming a stand-up comic.

He's been selected to perform at the prestigious Edinburgh (Scotland) Fringe Festival, and worked several New England theaters including the Mass Arts Center and Cotuit Center for the Arts. He's also performed at the less prestigious Missouri Mule Festival, as he compiles a resume of interesting show business experiences.

Jolanda Logan is a stand-up comedian performing all over New England, with her own unique mix of upbeat charm and sharp observational humor.
