An
evening of hilarious insights and advice on the differences between the sexes,
relationships of all kinds, marriage, kids and modern life in America. What better way to send off the old year and
usher in the new than with comedy, friends, fun and laughs. The showcase
begins late enough for creative dinner plans and ends in time to either make a
special rendezvous by midnight, or stay and party with the comics into the New
Year. Cocktails, sweets and savories
will be available for purchase and add to the festivities. THE stress-free,
fun, and fabulous way to ring in 2014, ample free parking on site and street,
NO two drink minimum, NO bridge toll and an opportunity to party with friends
and national talent right here in Marin.
MARK
CORDES (‘AKA The Spouse Whisperer’) Back by popular
demand, Mark is a hilarious comedian and humorist who has been hailed by
critics as a “One Man Laugh Factory”. Mark lampoons the ups and downs of
dating, relationships, marriage, and divorce and educates the crowd on the do’s
& don'ts.
CATHY LADMAN
The best way to
get inside Cathy Ladman's head is to see her live. As one of the country's top
comedians, Ladman's show is a self-probing, anxiety-venting vehicle, which
draws laughter from exposing personal neurosis. She has not only appeared on
"The Tonight Show" nine times, but was also the only female comic to
appear on the last two Johnny Carson "Tonight Show She appeared regularly on ABC's "Politically Incorrect" The Los Angeles Times put it best:
"... Ladman has such clever, well-written material and such a breezy,
unassuming delivery that it would be easy to overlook just how good she is: Her
act seems effortless."
