Capital Laughs Presents The Comedy Shuffle

Unlike every other comedy show you've ever been to, The Comedy Shuffle will always keep you laughing.

Unlike every other comedy show you've ever been to, The Comedy Shuffle never has bad jokes.

"That's impossible."

NAY!

At The Comedy Shuffle, a comic (any comic) does jokes while a seasoned comic (also lit and w/ a mic) interrupts them. If their joke doesn't initially work, the Shuffler's burns do.

The Shuffler can end their set at any time (if it's not going well), or let the comic go a little longer to find some brand new material (in a supportive, but accountable atmosphere).

It's not mean. It's not. Okay. It's a little mean. But, it's fun and constructive too.

Mojo Brookz

At the start of his career, he utilized Facebook and Instagram to demonstrate his comedic talent by writing and performing video skits. Some of his popular work includes his nine-series skit titled “Thawt in my House,” and mom and grand-mom impersonations, which maintained his popularity because many people can relate to the situations. It was the “Mr James”(Sugardaddy) character that proved as one of Brooks first major breaks online. This character has thrust Brooks into very deserved spotlight and helped him gain national attention and a bigger following.

The 28-year-old comedian started out doing comedy simply because he enjoyed it and it was fun to do in his spare time. Little did he know his skits and jokes were making a difference in other’s lives. He started receiving direct messages from fans who watch him daily expressing how his videos got them through a rough time, or simply brightened their day. This became his motivation to write and perform more often. He loved seeing the positive feedback, the laughs and smiles he could put on people’s faces. In five years of his career, he has gained a following of over 500,000 people via social media. 100,000 on Instagram, 340,000 on Facebook, 8,000 on Twitter and 50,000 on Snapchat.

Brooks has hosted events as well as performed alongside popular musical artist and comedians as follows, Lloyd, Jacquess, Plies, DC Young Fly, Micheal Blackson, Deray Davis, Jess Hilarious and Lil Duval. Dyon Brooks is now on a journey to capture the Stand-Up comedy world. He shot his first 30 min comedy special Titled “Trapped in my Head” in October of 2017. In 2018 he toured on his first nationally headlining tour, titled “Hysterical in Person” . After selling out several shows on his tour He is now back on tour co-headlining with Internet sensation Timothy Wilson Titled The Last Laugh Comedy Tour.
Up to date, Brooks has created over 900 video skits, about 300 stand-up comedy shows and has even hosted over 300 events. He currently has several videos with over 1,000,000 views each. You can find Dyon Brooks on social media as “MojoBrookzz” on IG and as “Dyon Brooks” on Facebook. Welcome To The Dyon Brooks experience!

Special Event Loft Debut
April 21 - April 23

Jay Mohr

Making his Comedy Loft debut comedian, actor and best selling author, Jay Mohr has been performing stand-up comedy since he was sixteen years old. With a career that has spanned over three decades, Jay has become an artist that is very difficult to define. Never wanting to rest on his accomplishments, Jay has always pushed himself to be more than just a comic. After landing his dream job of Saturday Night Live, it appeared as though Jay had reached the height of comedic success. Little did he know that just three years later, he would be cast opposite Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire and that same year co-star with Jennifer Anniston in Picture Perfect. Now the world that knew "comedian Jay" was quickly introduced to the "actor Jay." Never wanting to choose one career over the other, Mohr has brilliantly balanced both acting and stand-up comedy as roommates in his brain. Throughout his journey, Jay still loves performing stand-up comedy it's in his blood, his bones and his DNA. Anyone that has ever seen one of his concerts will be quick to tell you that there is no one better. Comedy Central agrees, having named Mohr one of the 100 greatest stand-up comics of all time. A simple bio doesn't do the stage show justice... as there are no notes, no two shows the same, and an act that never picks on the audience. These are the three tenets that Jay believes makes great live comedy, and the foundation is laid when Jay often tells his audiences, "Lets just jump off a cliff together and build our wings on the way down!"

Ed Bassmaster

Ed Bassmaster is the stage name of American YouTuber Edwin Rodriguez. His YouTube channel runs comedy videos where, as various characters, he pranks people or puts people into awkward situations. Bassmaster was also the star of the CMT reality-prank series, The Ed Bassmaster Show. In Bassmaster's videos, he is typically acting as one of his many characters: Chip Diamond, Always Teste, Skippy, Randy, Emillio, I-Work guy, Girard Douche, a CIA agent, Swollen Man, Hacker, Tequila, Mumbles, Bluetooth Man, Ugly Face, Bushman, and Zombie Face. Bassmaster began posting videos in 2006, and gained wide attention in 2015 with his and fellow YouTuber Jesse Wellens’ faux surveillance video purporting to show the destruction of the Canadian hitchhiking robot hitchBOT whose real-life destruction was not filmed. Some news organizations were fooled by the video. During the YouTube Comedy Week live event in 2013, Skippy, one of Bassmaster's characters, went on stage unannounced and was kicked out of the event. Ed has more recently started his own podcast on his YouTube channel, which started on 31 October 2019.

Randy Feltface

International sensation Randy Feltface’s live show is a high energy existential crisis, full of biting observations, razor sharp crowd work and rapid arm movements.

Since beginning his comedy career in Melbourne, Australia in 2005, Randy Feltface has written and performed eight solo stand-up comedy shows, released three comedy specials, played sold out seasons in London and New York and been nominated for Best Comedy at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. He made his US television debut on NBC’s Bring The Funny in 2019 and has been invited to perform at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal on four separate occasions.

In 2010 Randy joined forces with musical comedian Sammy J to create Ricketts Lane, which won Best Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and went on to become a television series of the same name, airing in 2015 on ABC TV in Australia, Seeso in the US and Netflix in the UK. Randy's role in Sammy J & Randy in Ricketts Lane earned him an AACTA Award nomination for best performer in a comedy series, the first non-human performer to be recognised in this category. He opened his most recent show Modus Operandy at the Sydney Opera House as part of the 2019 Just For Laughs Festival before shows in London, Amsterdam and an extensive North American tour. Randy’s live show is a high energy existential crisis, full of biting observations, razor sharp crowd work and rapid arm movements.

Shane Todd

I'm fuming you even need to look at this. I'm a stand up comedian, writer, podcaster & actor from Northern Ireland. I perform all over the world and usually bring my own almond milk to all shows because if I don't I'll get a poorly tummy. This year will be my sixth hour long solo show, I've played at a lot of festivals and have supported Bill Burr on tour.

I host the Tea With Me podcast (Apple UK Top 40) and co-host Boy Town with my uncle Dave Elliott.

I currently host the Shane Todd Show on BBC radio and have acted and written for over a dozen programmes on UK television. Later this year my first full solo series, Previously With Shane Todd, will air on BBC.

For the last decade I've been writing and uploading regular online sketches as myself and a wide range of characters. Most are just me with a slightly different outfit.
