With their unique styles and angelic nastiness, Sheng Wang, Kevin
Camia, Brent Weinbach and Ali Wong are blowing up the Bay Area stand-
up scene and making a name for Asian-American comedy. Come see what
everybody's talking about and get ready to pee in your pants.

About the comics:
SHENG WANG is seriously silly. Born in Taipei and raised in Houston,
he performs comedy based on personal experiences with intense honesty
and ill logic. His refreshingly affable stage presence combined with
a healthy penchant for absurdity and self deprecation make his comedy
universally accessible. Over the past two years, he has quickly risen
to become a regular at local comedy clubs, such as the Punchline,
Cobbs, and the Purple Onion. www.myspace.com/shengwang

KEVIN CAMIA is a stand up comic who loves to perform. He has
performed around the country, the Philippines and is becoming a local
favorite in the San Francisco Bay Area. Kevin's comedy is a unique
blend of dry wit, storytelling and social satire. He does draw from
his own experiences as a Filipino American but will write wherever
his mind takes him.

In the relatively short time BRENT WEINBACH has been performing stand-
up comedy in the Bay Area, he has gained a particularly favorable
reputation in both the underground and mainstream local comedy
scenes. With a unique and quirky approach, Brent combines absurdism,
borderline toilet humor, and cultural characterizations with an
intellectual sophistication. Originally from Los Angeles, Brent
Weinbach received his B.A. from U.C. Berkeley with a major in Film
Studies and minor in Music. He works professionally as a comedian,
musician, and school teacher. Visit www.brentweinbach.com

In her teddy bear buns, Adidas jacket and baggy pants, ALI WONG
disarms the audience, before complaining about her vagina getting
dusty, having to masterbate with a swiffer, and how sucking on flacid
penis is a lot like playing chubby bunny. But she is best known for
her imitations of white Rainbow Grocery shoppers in dreadlocks,
reflections on Muni and fish sauce pride. Known in the stand-up
community as "the woman who has been fuckin' shit up", Ali Wong has
attracted a large fan base that has described her comedy as "fresh,
empowering, and fucking hilarious." Visit www.ALIWONG.com.
