Starring…

Emily Van Dyke

Emily is a San Francisco-based comedian with more than a decade of stand-up experience. Originally from Logansport, Indiana, she moved to San Francisco in 2007, which has inspired much of her material, particularly her amusing observations on culture shock and adaptation. Her comedy mines themes from her twenties and thirties, touching on gender politics, dating, career, parenting, and relationships, often weaving in stories from her personal life.

She is known for her conversational delivery, relatable anecdotes, and willingness to experiment with both English and Spanish in her sets. In February 2024, she released her debut comedy album, “Feeling Myself,” produced by Blonde Medicine, which showcases highlights from her entire career rather than just recent material. Emily’s comedy is marked by a blend of nostalgia, vulnerability, and lighthearted takes on adulting, and she is now exploring more philosophical and political material, including topics like survival, voting, and the environment.

The evening’s Comedy Lineup

Terrell “Big T” Butler

Terrell “Big-T” was born and raised in Oakland, California, where he honed his craft as the class clown, roasting peers on the playground to turn being the “fat kid” into comedic gold. A graduate of Academy of Art University with a degree in Communication & Media Technologies, he draws inspiration from legends like Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, and Robert Townsend, blending fun, observational humor with Bay Area flair.

Big-T has built a multifaceted career in entertainment, hosting radio shows like “The Rise N’ Grind” on Urban Knights Radio, co-hosting events at his alma mater, and performing full sets like “Big Homie” that tackle topics from white friends and sex toys to relationship milestones. His multimedia savvy shines through TikTok skits, comedy competitions, and appearances at San Francisco Comedy Day, all while juggling roles in youth counseling and in-home support.

Jeff Durban

Jeff is a California native who stumbled into medical device marketing after discovering he had no marketable talents. His career took him to exotic destinations like Salina, Kansas, and Abilene, Texas, where he mastered chain restaurants and rental car counters. He runs and cycles because they require minimal coordination. After years of making friends and family laugh, Jeff finally took the stage where strangers can now judge him too.

The Evening’s Lineup of Comedians

Gina Stahl-Haven

Gina is a dynamic stand‑up comedian and storyteller based in the San Francisco Bay Area, known for her sharp, relatable material about motherhood, relationships, body image, and the absurdities of modern life. A runner‑up in the 2019 San Francisco International Comedy Competition (the first woman in 36 years and the only woman besides Ellen DeGeneres to reach that spot), she quickly made a name for herself with her candid, high‑energy style and fearless takes on rage, equity, and surviving Costco with three kids and multiple husbands. Her comedy blends personal storytelling with biting social observation, delivered with an intoxicating stage presence that keeps audiences both laughing and thinking.

Gina gained national exposure as a standout comedian on Season 17 of NBC’s America’s Got Talent, where she earned four “yes” votes from the judges and praise from Howie Mandel as “wonderful” and “memorable.” She’s performed at festivals across the country, including the World Series of Comedy, Boston Comedy Festival, and SF Improv Festival, and headlines clubs and storytelling shows nationwide. When she’s not on stage, Gina is also an adjunct professor and educator, bringing her passion for communication and connection to both the classroom and the comedy club.

Jon Lehre

Jon Lehre was born during the Summer of Love in San Francisco to hippy parents and his life has never been as cool as that ever again. A resident of Santa Rosa with his wife, two grown kids and an ongoing mortgage, Jon divides his time between stand-up comedy, graphic design and story-telling instead of going to therapy.

Jon Lehre has performed stand-up comedy throughout California, participated in the 2020 San Diego Comedy Competition, and was featured on the story-telling radio program, The Moth, in 2021. He continues to meander through his mid-life crisis with the bemused tolerance of his wife, two kids and easily startled dog.

Donovan Robertson

Donovan is an LA native based in the Bay Area who got into comedy as a punishment for finishing last in fantasy football. Turns out losing was the best thing that ever happened to him. His material covers dating disasters, growing up as the token Black kid in predominantly white private schools, and navigating life as someone who’s perpetually confused by social interactions.

Andy Obert

Andy is a Pleasanton-based tech executive who spent decades leading sales teams and sitting through meetings that should have absolutely been emails – so he naturally turned to stand up comedy. A Midwestern living in the Bay Area, Andy’s comedy tackles marriage, parenting adult kids, observations on his upbringing, corporate life, and his ventures into therapy. When not on stage he is trying to figure out if he is having a midlife crisis or just finally has enough money to admit it.

The Evening’s Comedy Line Up

Emily Van Dyke

Emily loves best friend tattoos and telling inappropriate stories at baby showers. Emily has opened for Colin Quinn and Judah Friedlander, she has performed in SF Sketchfest and she’s a local favorite in the Bay Area.

Born and raised in Logansport, Indiana, a town with one high school and a basketball hoop in every driveway, Emily Van Dyke has made a 15-years-and-counting home of the Bay Area. She started stand-up in 2011 after being laid off from her job as an art teacher. Says Van Dyke, “the lady at the unemployment office told me to take a class and that I should use the time off to explore myself and learn something new. So I did. I took a couple months of SF Comedy College classes, and bombed in the privacy of a 3rd floor conference room.”

Van Dyke describes her writing process as “pretty old-timey,” writing ideas in a purse notebook, taking notes when she makes a friend laugh, recording voice memos while driving and scribbling set lists on paper plates and napkins. Her comedy album “Feeling Myself” is available to stream and buy wherever you hear comedy.

Jalisa Robinson

Jalisa Robinson brings her sometimes-deadpan, sometimes-sparkling style to everything from race to the patriarchy to getting hit on at Whole Foods. A native midwesterner, she now lives in Los Angeles. She’s opened for Hannibal Burress and she regularly performs at Punchline San Francisco, the Set-Up LA, Don’t Tell Comedy, Rooster T. Feathers, San Jose Improv, Alameda Comedy Club, and Cheaper Than Therapy where she’s also an alumnus artist resident and producer. She’s performed at comedy festivals including SF Sketchfest and Oakland Comedy Festival and she was a San Francisco International Comedy Competition Semi-Finalist (2022).

Nic B, guest Host

A husband, father, and proud Livermore resident, Nic’s style blends brutally honest self reflection with the absurd thoughts that keep him awake at night. He has been a favorite on indie shows, bars & wineries, club showcases, and is a rising star on the roast battle circuit. Nic is sure to leave you with memorable stories & punchlines and plenty of new things to research after the show.

He runs a monthly “Roast Battle Royale” at Livermore’s own R-Place Music Club.

Vinayak Pal

Vinayak grew up with a single Indian mom in America…which meant Indian kids clocked him as different, Asian kids agreed, and Black kids had his back. (Then made fun of him for everything else.)

That’s the world Vinayak mines for laughs: cultural collisions, family chaos, and the kind of relationships that make great material and terrible decisions. He’s opened for Russell Peters, DL Hughley, and Akaash Singh, toured across India, and somehow convinced audiences on two continents that “Once you go brown, you never frown.”

Sharp. Authentic. Slightly unhinged. Exactly what you came for.

jeff Durban

Jeff is a California native who stumbled into medical device marketing after discovering he had no marketable talents. His career took him to exotic destinations like Salina, Kansas, and Abilene, Texas, where he mastered chain restaurants and rental car counters. He runs and cycles because they require minimal coordination. After years of making friends and family laugh, Jeff finally took the stage where strangers can now judge him too.

Rick Topkins

Rick always thought he was funny. His friends pretended he was. This was a catastrophic mistake.

A man who measures civilization’s decline by Marx Brothers DVD availability, Rick pulls his influences from everywhere… George Burns and Gracie Allen to Mike Birbiglia and James Acaster, with a detour through Cantinflas and a suspicious amount of sushi. What that combination produces is exactly as strange as it sounds, and considerably funnier than his friends let on.

He is also an excellent babysitter. That’s all you need to know.

The Marvelous Story Go Round

A night of hilarious true tales

Get ready to laugh, cringe, and nod in recognition as people take the mic to share their funniest real-life stories. We’re telling hilarious tales about first or worst anything – jobs, boyfriends, concerts it could even be both!

In the spirit of The Moth (but strictly the funny side), a lineup of comics will each tell a funny story about firsts or worsts—jobs, lover, car, marriages. Expect honesty, chaos, and comedy gold.

Then it’s your turn!

At the end of the show, anyone in the audience can jump up and share their own quick, one-minute story. The mic is open, the laughs are real, and the stories might just steal the night.

Dining Options

Beyond the Table will be on site with delicious dining options, along with Omega Road and New Vintage will be pouring your favorite local wines and hard spritzers. Come hungry, thirsty, and ready to laugh.

Drawing from her experience as founder and co-owner of Taste & Wander Charcuterie, Amanda expands beyond the board, bringing her signature hospitality and flavor to a broader, chef-led table.

Your Storytellers

Bill Schott

Bill is a SF Bay Area native who has performed in venues all over California, some big, some very small and some unique (a laundromat and a junkyard to name a few). He has also performed in clubs in Paris, Madrid and Tokyo. He is the youngest of 7 siblings and his comedy is based mostly on real events, except for the parts that are totally made.

Jeff Durban

Jeff is a California native who stumbled into medical device marketing after discovering he had no marketable talents. His career took him to exotic destinations like Salina, Kansas, and Abilene, Texas, where he mastered chain restaurants and rental car counters. He runs and cycles because they require minimal coordination. After years of making friends and family laugh, Jeff finally took the stage where strangers can now judge him too.

Faina Cherdak

Faina has done theater since high school, spent 2.5 years surviving the Meisner technique studio, and has done enough improv to talk her way out of almost anything. She’s performed at the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Festival, but honestly, she’s just here because she loves to make people laugh. Faina firmly believes that even in life’s darkest moments, there is always a punchline waiting to be found.

Donna Smith

New to stand-up, but definitely not new to the microphone! After a lifetime of careers, adventures, and unforgettable moments, now it’s time to share the funniest stories yet. With quick wit, real-life humor, and a whole lot of personality, this comic proves it’s never too late to take the stage and make people laugh.

Juls Vistnes

As a corporate trainer in Europe, China, India, and North America, Juls Vistnes has made people crack up about crazy work stuff … meetings that make you wish you had done drugs with your coffee, clueless co-workers, crazy deliverables matched by even crazier bosses. Now, Juls globe-trots for fun. She has wild stories to tell, from chasing her iPhone across Madrid, to stopping rush-hour traffic in Bangalore, so sit back and enjoy the ride!

big Al Lopez

Big Al spent his formative years in Livermore. He wasn’t allowed to be the class clown in 1st grade. He couldn’t even be the class mime. You can’t get out of an imaginary box when you’re tied to a chair. After getting released from the bondage of education he’s been drawing caricatures at events over 40 years. He’s been bringing props, songs, poetry and juggling to comedy stages since March 2022.
