Tommy Blaze
 
A veteran of the comedy stage, Blaze has appeared in every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse, and doghouse in the country.
 
His comedy is opinionated, thoughtful, controversial and admittedly one sided. If you are married, single, divorced, parents, gay or lesbian, confused, young, desperate, misguided, lost or easily offended then you need Tommy Blaze to straighten you out.
 
In addition to comedy clubs, private corporate events, casinos, cruise ships and colleges, Tommy was series regular on the nightly comedy series The Newz (predecessor to Mad TV), appeared in the hit television show Friends, and has starred in the movies Rumpelstiltskin and Viewer Discretion Advised.

Mark Sweeney

 

If you ask him - he will tell you he's a "professional comedian," even though his credits also include acting roles in "Boston Public," "The Visitor," and "Days of Our Lives." Along with those TV programs, Sweenz has also starred in several independent films which leads us to believe he's done a lot of porn. The four years he spent in the US Marines were forgettable, either that or he just can't remember them. Though his military history is a bit fuzzy, he's constantly being reminded that at some point he attended college, which is why he's still on the run from the student loan collectors

Michael Winslow

  

 Michael is perhaps best known for his character in all 7 POLICEAcademy movies. 
In 1984 Michael’s Big Break came when director Hugh Wilson and producer Paul Manslanski came to see him perform at the Long Beach Theater where he was opening for the incomparable Count Basie and his Orchestra. Needless to say, Wilson and Manslanski were blown away. They immediately wrote him into the script of the unforgettable
PoliceAcademy. The movie became an instant success and so did Michael. He would go on to have a role in all seven PoliceAcademy films. His celebrity status firmly established, Michael was cast in Mel Brooks' Spaceballs. He was also heard, but not seen, when he gave the voice to Stripe, the evil little creature, in Gremlins. He also did voice-overs for Disney and Universal Studios in such rides as Back to the Future and Terminator. Currently you can also hear him in the television hits Robot Chicken and Family Guy. You also can't miss him on those great Geico commercials.

Michael, a master of vocal gymnastics, can imitate more than 1000 sound effects using his voice alone. Whether he is recreating the frenzy of Jimmy Hendrix playing the guitar, or the roar of a jet plane, his talent is truly remarkable and his versatility admirable and enjoyable for all ages!

VIC DUNLOP

  

Make Me Laugh offered Vic his first TV shot as a solo performer. Then he became a regular performer on The Richard Pryor Show. Through that show, Vic was noticed by Universal Pictures and scored a role as a series regular on the Barbara Eden sitcom, Harper Valley PTA.

Things really started happening from there. Movie parts from Meatball III, The Devil and Max Devlin, Skatetown
USA, co-starring Patrick Swayze. Breakfast of Aliens and Martians Go Home were others to name a few.

Although Vic has enjoyed his work in film and television and his recent success as a screenwriter and producer, he continues to tour the country as a top performer in the corporate and comedy club circuit. He also works Vegas where he has opened for Tom Jones, The Righteous Brothers, Gladys Knight, The Four Tops and The Temptations.

Dunlop was born in
New York City, but decided to move to California when he was two years old because "the pressure was just too much."

Vic attributes his success in comedy to three major influences--his father, Catholic school , and the Army. His father, Vic Dunlop, Sr. (stage name: Victor Marko) is a successful character actor whom Vic caught the acting bug from at an early age. Vic attended Catholic school and credits the strict disipline of the nuns as good preparation for his stint in the Army...and
Vietnam.
