San Francisco International Comedy Competition (Opening Night!)

Hundreds of comedians audition each year to compete in the Annual San Francisco International Stand Up Comedy Competition. Only thirty are chosen. You'll have a chance to see about a dozen of them at this preliminary round of the competition. These contestants aren't newbies; they're hot, comedy-club headliners who bring audiences nationwide to tears. Now, they'll pull out all the stops trying for a future in TV and film. Past contestants include Dane Cook, Dana Carvey, Ellen DeGeneres, and Robin Williams. 1977 Comedy Champ Dana Carvey went on to Saturday Night Live. Marsha Warfield won in 1979, then starred as everyone's favorite Night Court bailiff. Two first runners upEllen DeGeneres and Mark Curry landed their own TV series. 1993 Crown Prince Patton Oswalt kept the laughs going on the King of Queens . Roseann Barr, Janeane Garofalo, Steven Wright, Bobcat Goldthwait, Christopher Titus, and DL Hughly all competed in the San Francisco International Stand Up Comedy Competition, but never made it to the finals. 1980 Winner Michael Pritchard, 1984 Winner Doug Ferarri, and 1992 Finalist T. Marni Vos are successful motivational speakers who practice what they preach and have given tremendous support with recovery and rehabilitation programs. 1983 Finalist, Dr. Gonzo, "The Doc of Comedy Rock", is on the City Council of his hometown of Mason, Illinois. San Francisco area natives Mark Pitta (1984 2nd Place ), Will Durst (1983 Winner), and Johnny Steele (1992 Winner) are all regulars on Bay Area TV programs.
