Joketellers Union (Local 206)

About Me

I am a live comedy night at the Faire Gallery Cafe on Capitol Hill in Seattle. Every month my roof is set on fire and violently torn off by a mind-blowing succession of pants-shittingly hilarious performers. My audience consists of some of the hippest laughter enthusiasts in the Emerald City.

I am produced by Brett Hamil with help from Mauricio and Anthony Harlem Blu. Past performers include: Owen Straw, Dan Moore, Sean Ottey, Derek Sheen, Aziza Diaz, Emmett Montgomery, David Cope, Andy Haynes, Tony Daniels, Andy Peters, Peter Greyy, Hari Kondabolu, John Sanders, James Parkinson, Danielle Radford, Solomon Georgio, Jake Merriman, Mauricio, and many more...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Laughter enthusiasts and practitioners of the sacred craft of joketelling. And a DJ to spin breaks between sets.
