We said we were a community hub, right? We said we bring Healdsburg to life? Well… it’s time to put our money where our mouth is. And we’re doing it right! We’re kicking off a brand-new series of stand-up comedy nights with one of the best standup comedians in town (in our opinion, in other people’s opinions, and soon, in your opinion too): Steve Ausburne!
Maybe you laughed your face off at our last comedy night in November – or maybe you didn’t… because you weren’t there. Either way, Steve is back. He’s our main man, living-room ringmaster, and the producer behind the show. Steve’s comedy career got its start as an MC for friends’ bands, which eventually led to his first stand-up set – a set so memorable it earned him a lifetime ban from a church in Grants Pass, Oregon. But Steve didn’t let that slow him down. Instead, he embraced the stage as a place for brutally honest, painfully awkward life confessions – the kind usually reserved for therapy, or very, very funny comedy.
And he’s not coming alone.
Jalisa Robinson joins the lineup – a proud Midwesterner now living in California, and a 2022 Semi-Finalist in the San Francisco International Comedy Competition. She’s a favorite at The Punchline San Francisco, Cobb’s, San Jose Improv, Rooster T. Feathers, and Don’t Tell Comedy, and performs regularly at clubs and festivals across California and beyond. If sharp, witty, and hilarious is your vibe, Jalisa’s got you covered.
And then there’s Ronn Vigh – our headliner. Ronn has written for Fashion Police on E! Television and performs stand-up at clubs, colleges, and venues across the country. He still dreams of becoming a weatherman (we support the dream). In the meantime, he’s an avid yogi (when not hungover), a devoted Golden Girls fan, and – despite being gay – a lifelong football lover.
