She's so funny, Rosie O'Donnell opened for her. Well, actually Rosie stopped in to do a guest set right before Del went on, but still, Del killed it right after that. Del Harrison or DEL, as most people call her, is an excellent standup comedian, writer, actress, host and one hell of an entrepreneur. In 2009, DEL created Another Sketch Comedy Show, an online sketch comedy show and kicked it off by spoofing the Monique Show (BET). The Mo'Nique Show sketch was so hilarious that Mo'Nique personally called DEL and invited her to be on her show.

Since then, DEL's sketches have reached a combined total of over 2 million views. And that's not all. This past year, Del was featured comedian on Fox's new standup show Laughs, Arise's Entertainment 360, NickMom's new webseries Actual Housewives of PTO, FLOW (the Stage Play), two independent films and she is now doing the voiceovers for FOX's Laughs (all female episodes). In 2005, DEL was named one of the Best New Faces of Comedy at Jamie Foxx's Laffapalooza. From there, she was scouted to be on Robert Townsend's Partners In Crime: Next Generation (Black Family Channel). Since then, DEL has appeared as a host on ParentSociety.com, ComedyCentral.com's Open Mic Fight Promo, CENTRIC Network's My Two Cents, WETv's Cinematherapy, XM Radio, GLOTV's The Gayest Ish Ever, Dr. Oz, FOX's The Mike & Juliet Show, ABC's The Revolution, Black Girls Rock Commercial, VH1's Why Am I Still Single, Warmed Up The Audience for The Oprah Winfrey Show; and, in January, 2013, she debuted on MTV's MADE, hosting Caribbean Comedy Wednesdays, her former weekly comedy show in Bronx, NY.


Clark Jones is part of the Chicago-originated, world renowned Two Black Dudes and a Microphone Comedy Show. He is a comedy writer for the Chicago Tribune, and has toured and opened for everybody from Hannibal Buress to Joe Torry.


Rising comedy star Monroe Martin mines laughs from an unusual source - growing up in foster care and being moved from one dysfunctional home to another. With a very honest, open approach to storytelling and an engaging personality, Martin effortlessly turns his childhood of hard knock experiences into comedy gold.

He attended the Community College of Philadelphia, but dropped out to pursue comedy wholeheartedly, because he couldn't imagine doing anything else. Seven years later, Martin's creative and charismatic comedic voice has created a buzz within the New York comedy circuit and earned him respect among his comic peers. He was given his own Breakout Artist Night by the famed Caroline's Comedy Club in New York City, where he got to book and headline his own show in 2013.

Martin currently performs all over the country. He has appeared on "The Artie Lange Show" on DirecTV and will be seen on the second season of "Adam Devine's House Party" on Comedy Central as well as the third season of "Gotham Live" on AXS TV. He also wrote for the MTV2 series "Charlamagne and Friends."


Francisco Ramos is the voice of the Lead Marmoset in the movie "RIO" with Anne Hathaway and Jesse Eisenberg.

He appeared in the Byron Allen syndicated show "First Family", has appeared in several sketches for the Jimmy Kimmel Live Show, and will also be a part of Steve Carrell's new TBS pilot "Tribeca".

Originally from Venezuela, Francisco moved to Washington D.C. in 1994. He graduated from the University of Maryland in 2004 with a double major of Finance and International Business. However, after a short-lived desk job, Francisco realized that his passion was comedy.

He has been selected to perform in the CBS Multicultural Diversity Showcase, where he was one of 12 selected from a pool of 5,000 applicants. He has also appeared in NUVO TV's show "Latino 101? and in the movie "Marmaduke" with Owen Wilson and George Lopez.

Francisco Ramos performs regularly at the major comedy clubs in Los Angeles such as the Comedy Store, Comedy & Magic Club, Laugh Factory, Improvs. He recently worked as one of the writers and host for the 123UNODOSTRES channel show "Bashtag", and is quickly becoming one of the best Latin comics in the industry.
