Meet the Jokers and Jester Comedy Tour Players
Steve Mazan
Beginning his career in the same San Francisco comedy scene that produced such comic legends as Robin Williams and Dana Carvey, Steve Mazan has brought his stand-up around the world. He has enjoyed venues from clubs and colleges across the U.S. as well as corporate events, cruises, and a variety of television shows including The Late Show with David Letterman. As a writer for The Ellen DeGeneres Show Steve received an Emmy for his work there.
Performing clean, clever routines Steve has landed spots (in addition to David Letterman) on The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson, The Bob & Tom Radio Show, as well as Sirius/XM Radio comedy channels. He has also handled audience warm-up duties for television shows Deal or No Deal, among others. Adding to his resume’ are eight different trips to Iraq and Afghanistan where he performed rousing comedy shows for U.S. and coalition troops.
These are the shows that are closest to his heart and when asked if he’d do it again, Steve says, “In a heartbeat!” The subject of the award-winning film “Dying to do Letterman,” Steve’s comedy has been described as “brilliant” and “side-splitting.” His material offers layers that leave audiences howling and retrospective at the same time. Smart and silly, intelligent and ridiculous and always clever, Steve Mazan’s clean comedy keeps audiences coming back for more.
Mark Gee
Quick witted and personable, Mark Gee’s comedy inspires a wide variety of audiences. A genuinely friendly and very funny comic, Mark is a natural behind the microphone. Performing at all the major clubs nationwide and known for his relatable comedy, audiences feel like they’re spending time with an old friend whenever he performs.
Mark’s comedic journey began in San Francisco where he performed at open mic’s throughout The City and the Bay Area. Mark ultimately enrolled in the Bay Area Theater Sports (BATS), a world-famous San Francisco improvisation institute; this additional training helped add more versatility to Mark’s comedic routines. He gives a lot of credit to BATS for helping him improve his natural abilities to weave his material with improvisation. The result? The audience experiences what Mark describes as a “fresh out of the oven” act every time! A true world traveler, Mark performs full-time around the U.S. and abroad.
Currently living just outside of Sacramento, California, Mark has performed as far away as Japan, Singapore, Korea, and Canada.
Jake Daniels
Chasing a dream, before landing on the comedy circuit Jake produced several award-winning films. Two of his feature-length films (Dark Woods, The Deviant) can be found on Netflix, while some of his older short films can be found on YouTube. Known as one of the hardest working comedians today, Jake is involved with over 300 shows annually.
Touring the U.S. most of the year doing comedy shows nightly in bars, stadiums and comedy clubs, Jake has also been heavily involved in some amazing causes. These include producing and performing in fundraisers for Children’s Cancer Research, as well as several different Veterans Organizations.
The “Heart Break Kid” brings his history of relationship heartbreaks to life in his act. This romantic comic flirts with topics such as: “Love at first sight,” “Role playing,” and the “D” word (D-I-V-O-R-C-E, not Dallas). Jake is one of those rare comedians who can get an audience to shake their heads even though they’re laughing at the material.
Tony Dijamco
Impressing audiences all over the country, and now all over the world the past seventeen plus years, Tony Dijamco’s fierce mix of quick wit and sardonic sense of humor makes him a club favorite and an eagerly sought after performer. Tony spends a lot of time entertaining on college campuses everywhere.
Tony combines vocal and physical act outs with his unique storytelling perspective, not just “touching” on world events but jumping in with both feet. His inimitable outlook on today’s world is guaranteed to provide you with a show not found anywhere else.
Tony takes pride in making every show unique for every night and every crowd. Recently seen on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, in 2011 Tony took Second Place in The San Francisco International Comedy Competition, which, coincidentally, is a place in history he shares with Ellen DeGeneres and Robin Williams. (“Yes, that’s what they told me after the competition. And no, it didn’t make me feel any better.” – Tony Dijamco).
