It all started at an audition for a movie that never saw the light of day, but what shone brightly was Magen King’s natural comedic flair. It was there she made Kevin Hart – yes, that comedy giant Kevin Hart– laugh uproariously. His advice to her was simple yet life-changing: dive into stand-up comedy. Magen took these words to heart, and the rest is history.

Today, Magen King is not just a comedian; she’s a force in the comedy world. An award-winning radio host turned stand-up sensation; her journey has been nothing short of remarkable. She’s shared stages with comedy stars like Drew Lynch, Andrew Dice Clay, Shawn Wayans, and Mark Curry. Her tours have included collaborations with Tim Meadows, Mitch Fatel, and Nick Griffin, showcasing her versatility and appeal.

Magen’s dedication to her craft began in her teens, leading her to hone her skills under the tutelage of esteemed institutions like Upright Citizens Brigade. Her commitment to comedy is also reflected in her role as the director of stand-up at Dallas Comedy Club, where she developed the curriculum for Stand Up Levels 1 through 3. Her expertise is in high demand, with her classes consistently selling out.

Her presence has graced television on the CW and numerous esteemed comedy clubs, including The Hollywood Laugh Factory, Burbank’s Flappers, Addison Improv, and Denver’s Comedy Works. In her hometown of Dallas, she’s a celebrated local headliner, captivating audiences at Addison Improv, Dallas Comedy Club, Slapstixs, Comics Live, The Grove, and The Loony Bin.

Magen’s accolades are a testament to her comedic prowess. She was a finalist in the World Series of Comedy and a finalist for three consecutive years in the Funniest Comic in Texas. Her talent was further recognized when she was voted Best in Fest at the Burbank Comedy Festival in 2021. She recently won Northwest Arkansas’ Favorite Headliner competition.

On stage, Magen transforms the challenges of single parenthood into a wellspring of laughter. She contrasts raising three teenagers in today’s world with her own experiences as a 90’s latchkey kid, offering insightful, relatable, and downright hysterical commentary. Her self-deprecating humor, approachability, and undeniable wit make her performances unforgettable.

Magen King is more than a comedian; she’s a storyteller who finds humor in life’s twists and turns, making every show a memorable experience for her audience

Dan Whitehurst is a veteran stand-up comic and writer based out of Nashville Tennessee. Dan did his first Open Mic in 1998 and developed a routine of bizarre one liners which he used to win the WKDF Talent search at Zanies in Nashville by 1999.

Born in Knoxville Tennessee, little Danny Whitehurst always had a knack for finding humor in unusual situations. After flunking out of college at U.T.

In 2001 Dan was voted the “World’s Funniest Cop” by the Association Of Law Enforcement Training in Orlando Florida and runner up in 2003’s contest held in Los Angeles and hosted by Jay Leno. As an Armed Robbery Detective, he was also named Investigator Of The Year in 2002 for the City Of Nashville.

By 2007, the police career ended and comedy became a full time endeavor. Opening for a who’s who of comedians at his home club, Zanies in Nashville, Dan watched and learned as his act evolved from one liners to relying on actual stories from his diverse employment background and now headlines in comedy clubs across the United States.

He is a single father living in Denver, CO with his son, Simon and his daughter, Seika. He also boasts a girlfriend.

Andy Hendrickson is a comedian, writer and actor that built his career in New York City. He now resides in Los Angeles. He has a clever, conversational style that has been engaging audiences for over 15 years. His material is based on real life experiences and his anecdotes are laced with a hearty disapproval. He doesn’t really know what that means either.

Andy has a matter-of-fact sense of humor and specializes in highlighting life’s silly details. One reviewer said it best, “He’s the exasperated guy next door.” But hey, don’t take my word for it, I’m just a broke college student that Andy paid $5, on a freelancer website, to make this thing sound good. Instead, watch one of his many clips from his TV appearances.

He’s had multiple TV appearances including: The Late Show with David Letterman, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Gotham Comedy Live, NBC/Seeso’s The Guest List and more. Internationally, Andy has performed at clubs and festivals throughout the world, including Canada, England, Holland and Ireland. He also performed for our troops on Outback’s Feeding Freedom Tour that provided entertainment for the troops on military bases across Afghanistan. His comedy CD “Underachiever” recently released to rave reviews and debuted in the iTunes Top 10.
