PRISCILLA FERNANDEZ – HEADLINER
Priscilla Fernandez is a well-rounded comedian; she performs every genre of comedy plus she has a weight problem.
She’s a Latina-Jew who grew up a pastor’s daughter, so with such a confusing, patriarchal and religious upbringing— who wouldn’t have become a comedian?!
She discovered she had the ability to cut through arguments at home with her comedy like a warm knife through lard. Now, she writes comedy for other comedians, performs wacky character monologues, she won 2nd place at a roast and has performed over 20 roasts for community leaders.
Today, her humor is described as irreverent, self-deprecating, sacrilegious and absurd YET relatable. She needs a lot of attention from strangers, so please go to her shows and fill her deep, dark, empty and gaping hole of validation–with your approval!
Priscilla is also half of the comedy duo Missy’n Prissy where they host/emcee fundraisers, conferences, protests and vegan buffets. By day, she is a certified Death Doula, a Grief Recovery Specialist, Marketing Consultant, Event Planner, and Public Speaker. Priscilla’s father is a Cuban-Jewish immigrant, and her mother is an Apache-Mexican. They’re both preachers in the Seventh-day Adventist faith, and her father secretly practices Judaism and is a Cantor for a local Temple. And THAT is how you make a comedian.
MO URBAN – HOST
Mo Urban has been described as silly, insightful and energetic on stage. Mo uses a lot of introspection in her stand-up and her discoveries have become relatable to many. Mo often laughs at herself and encourages others to do the same. Mo has produced many shows all over Tucson and other parts of Arizona. She Co-produces Lady Haha Comedy along with Priscilla Fernandez. Mo also produces and hosts a monthly show at BlackRock Brewery and has been involved in the production for The Big Pine Comedy Festival and Bird City Comedy Festival.
KITTY CATATONIC
Kitty Catatonic is Tucson’s only angle grinding burlesque artist and a featured performer with Tucson Libertine League. Known as Tucson’s Cannibalistic Queen, Kitty aims to expand her audience’s definition of the art of burlesque with each act, stimulating their lust for more of something they never imagined was desired.
ASHE THOMAS
Ashe has been performing standup comedy for a little over a year now, almost exclusively at Lady Haha open mics. Their comedy often centers around the perks and quirks of the lesbian experience, and other gay shenanigans. Ashe prides themself on taking up pace in the world of comey and bringing stories to the stage that probably could’ve stayed in their notes app.
