Bo Johnson: Best of the Competition
February 9 @ 9:00 pm - 11:00 pm
About Bo Johnson
Bo Johnson is a comedian from Seattle, Washington who can be found headlining clubs, breweries, and appropriately sized theaters across the United States and Canada. His stand up has been featured on Netflix Is A Joke Radio, season two of Kevin Hart Presents: Hart of the City on Comedy Central, Don’t Tell Comedy Secret Sets, & LOL Live! at the prestigious Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal. He was a finalist in the 39th annual Seattle International Comedy Competition and is a regular at festivals including Bumbershoot, SF Sketchfest, the Double Down Comedy Experience sponsored by Zappos, Life is Beautiful in Las Vegas, Rifflandia in Victoria BC, Prizefest, and Big Pine Comedy Festival in Phoenix. With a growing online audience Bo’s jokes have been viewed millions of times online.
Separate from stand up comedy one time Bo and his best friend from high school snuck into a movie theater as one person. That video was broadcast on TV shows like the now cancelled Caught on Camera with Nick Cannon on NBC and lowest rated daytime talk show at the time, The Meredith Veira Show. Bo still gets messages each year from friends seeing the video go viral on different meme accounts. Numerous magazines and newspapers also wrote about the hijinks, including an article in Cosmopolitan titled, “Man Sneaks His BFF Into Movie Theater by Stuffing Him Into His Pants.” More recently Bo trained his roommates dog by walking her to Shania Twain’s “Man! I feel like a Woman!” in a viral stunt earning over 7 millions views on Tik Tok and press coverage in both major and incredibly minor publications.
Timmy Booth
Timmy Booth is one of two standup comedians ever born in Stokesdale, North Carolina. He now lives in Seattle where he brought home a Pacific-Northwest-best third place in the 2022 Seattle International Comedy Competition. He’s been featured in the New Yorker, on the CBC, and at Dusty Slay’s Homegrown Showcase. He says “hi.”
Gabey Lucas
Gabey Lucas is a writer and comedian who’s been called “witty yet strangely informative.” Formerly the humor columnist for The Ubyssey in Vancouver, she currently writes for SB Nation and has performed from New Zealand to New Orleans to North Macedonia including at Hell Yes Fest and the Ohrid Summer Comedy Marathon. She was also named one of the 2020 Full Artists by Steve Hofstetter’s Martin Foundation, but it turns out February 2020 was quite bad timing for something of that nature. Gabey’s only true ambition was to be on Drunk History, where she would’ve told the story of Washington’s Ivy League-upending, Nazi-beating 1936 crew team.
