Here is the line up of the Comedians performing:

LANG PARKER

Lang Parker headed out west from Wisconsin 15 years ago and continues her acting career in film, television and performing in commercials. Lang’s impressive comedic timing, instant likability on and off camera and impressive writing skills gained her national attention on the Emmy-nominated NBC show Last Comic Standing. She floored judges when she came out in her overalls and asked, “Have you ever been mistaken for a lesbian?”

Lang regularly tours clubs and cities all over the United States as well as numerous tours overseas to entertain the US Armed Forces.

Lang’s credits include Beverly Hills 90210, The Ellen Degeneres Show, a pilot for a major US network, 40+ national and international commercials as well as dozens of movie & television roles.

She continues to perform and create worldwide.

MARIA WALSH

Marie Walsh, “America’s Naughtiest Mommy” redefines parenting and offers some original tips in her one-woman tour de force.  She may appear like a classic SUV-driving, latte-drinking, suburban soccer mom but Walsh says what most people are thinking but are afraid to say. In the era of child worship, Walsh mocks the art of child-rearing in a hilarious fashion that gets mommies and daddies laughing so hard they can’t hear the babysitter calling on their blackberries!

BARBARA HOLLIDAY

Barbara is the owner of Flappers Comedy Club in Burbank and H2F Comedy Productions an LA-Based Comedy Management and Development company, Holliday is an unexpectedly funny, blue-eyed, 5-foot-2-inch dynamo. And since 1999, she has been Managing Comedians and Producing live comedy shows, festivals, and television pilots. A few of her shows include Uncle Clyde’s Comedy Contest, sponsored by the Riviera Comedy Club in Las Vegas, Survival of the Funniest and the Hollywood Ha Ha Festival, as well as many projects for film and television. She has also been on 14 Game Shows- Is that legal?

Holliday was born in Long Island, New York to computer programmer Paul Holliday and visual artist, Madeline Baker. She believes her multi-talented capacity for performance, and business is a result of being raised in a thoroughly “left brain/right brain” trailer park family. Experience probably has much to do with her flair as well. After graduating from San Diego State University with her Teaching certification and a degree in Theater Arts (Hon.) English minor in 1989, she was headed for a high school teaching stint but ended up getting cast instead as a Kid’s Club Host for Fox on the highly-rated television program Fox Kids Club. The show allowed Holliday to hone her performance & leadership skills on some of the toughest guests around-young children and animals-while simultaneously writing and producing her daily show.

Since moving to Los Angeles in 1993, Holliday has performed in National Television commercials for SBCGlobal, films such as (Naked Gun 33⅓) and television shows (Friends, The Dating Game, World’s Funniest), on stage (Funny Girl, Hello Dolly, West Side Story) and as a stand-up and sketch comedian (The Comedy Store, IGBY’s, Ha Ha Café, The Improv and various other Showcases throughout Los Angeles).  She has also worked as a Clown, and balloon artist at local theme parks, as well as being the CO-Creator of Uncle Clyde’s Comedy Contest, and Survival of the Funniest and many other reality and comedy show pilots.

It is going to be an AMAZING night of fun and laughs and the best part? It’s for a good cause. So come join us for one of the funnest things to do in Guanacaste. We can’t wait to spend another great night with you all at The Garden Bar.
