HELEN HONG
JENNY YANG
DHAYA LAKSHMINARAYANAN

HELEN has performed standup comedy on Last Call with Carson Daly, The Arsenio Hall Show, Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen, Wanda Sykes Presents Herlarious, Standup in Stilettos, Gotham Comedy Live and the Showtime documentary Why We Laugh: Funny Women. Helen plays Janet Fung in the Coen Brothers’ film Inside Llewyn Davis and her voice can be heard as Thistle Lady in 20th Century Fox Animation’s Epic. Her TV appearances include roles on Parks and Recreation, Bones, Pretty Little Liars, New Girl, The Crazy Ones and Inside Amy Schumer. Helen channels her own Asian mother as recurring character Mrs. Wong on Nickelodeon’s The Thundermans. Helen’s adorable stage presence and lively accounts of her ridiculous dating life and immigrant family have landed her on Huffington Post’s favorite female comedians list. She was also named by Buzzfeed as one of 18 Comedians Who Could Take Over the Late Show from David Letterman.

JENNY was just dubbed one of Los Angeles’ “most fascinating people” of 2015 in LA Weekly’s annual “People” issue. She is a Los Angeles based writer and stand up comedian who produces the first-ever (mostly) female, Asian American standup comedy tour, Dis/Orient/ed Comedy. She entertains indie, comedy club and college audiences with her biting social commentary, engaging delivery, and high-energy stage persona. Jenny has been featured as a writer and performer on the viral Buzzfeed video, “If Asians Said the Stuff White People Say” and Lady Parts Justice comedy videos about reproductive health and justice (Lady Parts Justice is the brainchild of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show co-creator, Lizz Winstead). Jenny was also a featured standup comic on Joan Rivers’ 2013 Showtime documentary Why We Laugh: Funny Women.

DHAYA was named Best Comedian 2013 in the San Francisco Bay Guardian’s “Best of the Bay” Readers’ Poll. Comedy Central Asia crowned her the Grand Prize Winner of “The Ultimate Comedy Challenge” (2013). In addition, Dhaya is a storyteller appearing on NPR’s Snap Judgment. The premiere year of the PBS series, High School Quiz Show, which she hosted won an Emmy. The Boston Globe and The Bay Guardian, and The San Jose Mercury News have all run profiles about her.
