Comedians

Luke Thayer’s just a midwest boy dropped into the big city. He is silly, yet biting with unorthodox observations of the world, including childhood, parenthood, and the neighborhood. Luke is a member of the prestigious Friar’s Club, and tours comedy clubs, colleges, and theaters worldwide. He has appeared on “Gotham Comedy Live VR”, FOX, TruTV, and The Food Network, to name a few. Luke is regularly heard on SiriusXM Radio, has been their “Comedian of the Month”. You can watch his Dry Bar Comedy Special, listen to his album “Hopes + Dreams”, and keep an eye out for his new special debuting soon on Amazon.

Kathe Farris is a Boston-based stay-at-home mom, stand-up comedian, and snack cake enthusiast. She hit the comedy scene a little late in life with a different point of view and killer material. After becoming a Comic-in-Residence at The Comedy Studio and a finalist in the Boston Comedy Festival, she recently released her national debut with a Dry Bar Comedy Special as well as her album “Have you seen this woman” available anywhere you get your music, comedy and podcasts. With an eye for detail and an understated edge that speaks to grandparents and frat bros alike, Kathe performs regularly at everything from corporate events to a basement show full of hipsters (one time, went great). Her weekly show, Farris and Friends Comedy Hour, even became “The Boston Globe’s Critics Choice.” They didn’t give her a plaque so she made one. She’ll show you later.
