Our headliner for the evening is Mark Gee.
Mark is a quick witted, personable comedian capable of handling a wide variety of audiences. He is a friendly comic who is genuinely funny and at ease behind the microphone. Mark G has performed at all the major clubs nationwide. He is known for his relatable comedy and audiences feel like they are spending time with a friend when he performs.
Mark’s comedic journey started in the wonderful city of San Francisco, California, where he began performing wherever there was a microphone. He wanted to add more versatility to his comedy, so he enrolled in the world famous improvisation institute in San Francisco, Bay Area Theater Sports (BATS). Mark G gives a lot of credit to the school for helping him improve his ability to weave his material with improvisation and the audiences experience for a fresh out of the oven act!
Our Feature Acts for the Evening are Adam Keys and Wendy Lewis.
Adam is a hilarious up-and-coming comedian who's a regular at Sacramento's Laughs Unlimited and has been entertaining Bay Area crowds the last couple of years with his hilarious antics.

Onstage Presents
Dirty Cello
Saturday, December 12th
🆕2:30 PM and 7 PM
Due to 7 PM show sellout, an extra performance has been added!
From Iceland to Italy, and all over the U.S., San Francisco based band Dirty Cello brings the world a high energy and unique spin on blues, rock, and Americana. Led by vivacious cross-over cellist, Rebecca Roudman, Dirty Cello is cello like you’ve never heard before. From down home blues and rock with a wailing cello to virtuosic stompin’ Americana, Dirty Cello is a band that gets your heart thumping and your toes tapping!
“Dirty Cello’s music is all over the map: funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, tangled, electric, fiercely rhythmic, and textured, and only occasionally classical.”
—Oakland Magazine
“The band plays every style imaginable, and does some fantastic covers. (Their rendition of “Purple Haze” is incredible.) But what is most spectacular about them is hearing the depth of soul in Roudman’s playing—it goes beyond what most people would expect from the instrument. She plays it with so much heart, you’ll wonder why more bands don’t have a cellist.”
—Good Times Santa Cruz
“A five-piece string ensemble that truly pushes the envelope and breaks the barriers, they blend blues, bluegrass and world music sounds with roots in the world of European classical music in a style that is unique and refreshing.”
—Cloverdale Reveille
“The group seamlessly careens from blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that really shouldn't make sense but somehow does.”
—LA Times
“The ensemble plays a range of eclectic tunes in ways you won’t hear anyone else dare to attempt.”
—Argus Courier
“Anyone who's been in an audience when the San Francisco Bay Area Dirty Cello takes the stage knows that something unique happens whenever cellist Rebecca Roudman and ensemble come face to face with living, breathing (and whooping and shouting) fans.”
—Strings Magazine
“Dirty Cello have been hard to describe, apart from saying that a cello (played in ways you won’t quite believe) is involved, and the range of music takes the word eclectic and supercharges it to meltdown levels of energy and invention.”
—Argus Courier
