Chris Burns walks onto the stage with confidence and an attitude. She makes subtle changes in her voice, sounding masculine one minute and childlike the next, and then all breathyand with each switch, she gets funnier. "I'm just gonna take a moment to get centered here. I like to do some affirmations before I start. So everybody try to find that sacred place within you." She takes a deep breath and in a calm soothing voice, with her eyes closed, she intones: "Without me bringing the joy of laughter the audience is nothing. Chris Burns http://chrisburnscomedy.com/

morgan Some say that the truth is hard to find, but not when Morgan is on stage. As a vivacious transgender comedian, Morgan has been described as "a transgender super hero," by LA Weekly. She may not have a cape or be able to fly, but this transgender avenger has traveled from one end of the country to the other, telling her story on any stage with a mic, including Austin Texas's Bed Post Confessions, numerous Bay Area Bawdy Storytelling Shows, The Manhattan and L.A Risk Show, and even as Headliner of the Vallejo Pride Festival http://www.morgansfunny.com/
