Featuring:
Jerry C. Jaffe
The world’s most highly educated stand up comedian
Husband. Father. Teacher. Jerry has traveled the world, teaching at different universities while
directing plays on three continents. He brings his wry and ironic sense of humour to his world-
weary experience on everything from parenting to physics. He combines observational humour
about marriage with nerd comedy about Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons. With his PhD in
comedy, Jerry raises the IQ of audiences everywhere he goes.
Jerry is the producer and host of the podcast Gold Star Classroom. He is also a featured
performer in the upcoming documentary Behind the Laughs. He is a former writer and
segment producer for the Toledo-based variety TV show Monkey Dome.
Jerry has hosted at The Funny Bone (Toledo), The Funny Stop (Cuyahoga Falls), and JRs Last
Laugh (Erie, PA), among others. He recently featured at the Warren Comedy Club and closed
out the “Nerd Up! Stand UP!” show in Canton, OH. He has done showcases at Flappers
(Burbank), Hilarities (Cleveland), and the Punchline (Atlanta). In December of 2013 he had the
thrill of performing on the White Thrash Xmas Show in Youngstown alongside Don Jamieson,
Kevin Downey JR., and Mark Riccadonna. He produces and hosts the Eastside Comedy show in
Mentor, OH.
Peter Hale - Barely Lucid
Peter is a Designer, Construction Manager, Multi-media Artist, Photographer, Comic and Actor
and enjoys reality part time. He can often be found in a meadow, observing and commenting
on the vagaries of life, sometimes in a slightly sardonic manner. Peter has performed at Laffs
for Laps (two years running), The Funny Stop, Sassy’s Bar and Grill, and many charitable events,
often with his imaginary friend.
Joanna Butler - Sarcasm on a Stick
Joanna is sort of retired, and enjoys doing comedy in the time she can spare from her busy
schedule of doing mostly nothing. She has appeared on stage at the Improv in Cleveland, at the
Funny Stop in Cuyahoga Falls, and in traffic court in Barberton. She is married to Frank and has
two cats.
