Laura Salvas

Laura Salvas is pretty effing wonderful so please read carefully. Laura’s been doing standup for, like, a year now. So far, career highlights include her spot as a finalist in the 2009 Toronto Comedy Brawl and this thing you’re at tonight. Laura also does lots of sketch comedy as part of her troupe Warm Summer Hotness and is currently training as part of The Second City conservatory program and through Impatient Theatre Co. Laura has been part of various improv show casts, including (currently) Vanguard School of Comedy’s Jenkins Syndrome and (previously) Kingston’s Saturday Night at the Improv and The Improv Show. She directed the improv troupe at Ryerson University, where she earned her journalism degree, and has been involved with the Canadian Improv Games national high school tournament for more than a decade as a player, trainer and judge. Don’t let the third person fool you – Laura wrote this bio herself. Thank my $40,000 Ryerson journalism degree for the impeccable grammar.

Marilla Wex

Marilla Wex has been doing stand-up for over a year and is apparently getting quite good at it since she seems to have graduated to hosting some shows which is even harder than just doing stand-up. She’s even got paid for doing it, which is nice.

When she’s not writing jokes she builds websites for other people that write jokes. And other actors (she’s also quite good at acting and gets paid for that too).

You can see what else she gets up to (writing, voice work, movie appearances) on her personal website.
