Odd Babes Productions is made of of Shannon Koyano and Danielle K.L. Gregoire. There are both stand up comedians, parents, general bad-asses and comfortable not fitting the mold. Shannon has been doing comedy for four years and has performed at Bumbershoot, with the Disoriented Comedy Tour, and helps produce multiple shows. Danielle is the founder of the Comedy Womb (now the Comedy Nest), and the producer of the Seattle Moth storySLAM. Odd Babes produce shows that are hate-free, specifically aimed at celebrating women/queer/poc/ally comics and getting artists paid, and audiences laughing.
Jenny Zigrino:
With the sweetness of the Midwest and the iron balls of the East Coast, Jenny Zigrino is a comedian that packs a punch of truly original humor. She’s charmed audiences across the country with her wit, keen observations, embarrassing anecdotes, and brilliant honesty for a compelling performance you can’t ignore.
She made her late night debut on Conan O’Brien and was a recent guest on the hit shows @Midnight and Adam DeVine’s House Party Season 3 on Comedy Central. She’s been featured on TBS, Oxygen, Fox, and IFC.
A rising star in Hollywood, her first film appearance was a leading role in the film 50 Shades of Black with Marlon Wayans. She wrapped filming the new film Bad Santa 2 with Billy Bob Thornton, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2003 hit film Bad Santa. Release date is set for Nov 23rd, 2016.
She exploded onto the Just For Laugh’s New Faces Showcase for 2016 and has been featured in many festivals across the country. She is an alumni of The New York Comedy Festival, Women in Comedy Festival, Bridgetown Comedy Festival, Moontower Comedy Festival, and many more.
In conclusion, she’s kind of a bad ass bitch.
Elicia Sanchez:
A Seattle-based comedian, writer and comic book reader, Elicia Sanchez has been performing all over the country since 2010. Their conversationally cynical, yet upbeat comedic style weaves together a unique mix of embarrassing personal stories, nerdy obsessions, social politics and possible overshares, making light of their own instances of social incompetence while also skewering oppressive social norms. The have been called “fearless” by City Arts Magazine, “a grumpy nugget of delight,” by writer/activist Lindy West, “a local favorite,” by Seattle alt weekly The Stranger and “a brilliant new voice everyone should know,” by comedian Hari Kondabolu. Grammy Award winning singer/song-writer Kimya Dawson (The Moldy Peaches, Juno) has cited Sanchez as her ‘favorite underground Northwest comedian’ while W. Kamau Bell, comedian and host of CNN’s United Shades of America, once said, “Elicia Sanchez is the truth.”
