Biographies


Fred Curchack
Synthesis
Fred Curchack has created seventy-six original theatre pieces. He has received the Gold Medal at the International Festival of Solo Theatre, the American Theatre Wing Award, and his work has been Best of the week in the L.A. Times, Top ten of the year in The New York Times, Top ten of the decade in the Austin Chronicle, and Top ten of all-time in The Dallas Morning News.

Will Durst
Uncertain Times Call for Uncertain Leaders! enter: The Lieutenant Governor From the State of Confusion
Durst, sworn enemy to tyrants, foreign and domestic, has managed to patch together a half way decent quilt of a career via syndicated columns, radio and television commentaries, stand up comedy, stage and screen acting, talk show hosting, voice-overs and now the book. Nominated for 5 Emmys and 7 nominations for the American Comedy Awards Stand up of the Year, he has yet to win anything. Even a toaster for crum’s sake.

ONNECT YOUR VISIT

 
Dave Pokorny
Based On A True Story
For a full decade Dave Pokorny toured the U.S. as a working stand-up comic, however after his first daughter was born he no longer wanted to tell jokes to strangers in bars for money.  After seven years as a stay-at-home dad he still doesn’t want to just tell jokes, but he’s realized he has a lot more to say than, “Hey, put that down...leave your sister alone...because I said so that’s why...and pick that up!” Listen to a Podcast of Dave Pokorny's KSRO CenterStage interview!!!
