Henry Sapp: Henry Sapp better known as Hen Sapp, is a loving husband and father of 2 girls. Hen is a hard working Christian man whom God has preserved and anointed for such a time as this. He is an edgy Christian Comedian with a gift to make people laugh. As long as he can remember, He has made people laugh from classmates to teachers, friends and family with his quick and witty responses. He learned to tell jokes by playing the dozens as a way to protect himself after being teased about his skin complexion. He would sit around and observe the strange and odd things people would do when they didn’t think anyone was watching or paying attention, especially in the church!
DL Henry: DL Henry is one of the greatest comics to explode on the scene during this time when the healing powers of laughter is needed so much.  One whose grandeur of comedic style is like being at an all you can eat buffet “He has jokes for everyone.” Not just fun and games but he serves a surprise of stories with funny spins about our life’s situations that just make you sit back, look at yourself, and say, “Hum!”, Maybe I need to do something about that,” while at the same time you’re laughing.  Like a buffet you get the things you want and need DL is a comedian who cooks to order preparing something for all ages, ethnic backgrounds, cultures whether you’re in a club, business conference, private party  or a church it doesn’t matter he understands we are all people.
Andrea Woodfolk: A natural born entertainer, Andrea Woodfolk has taken her turn in a showbiz kaleidoscope including singing, dancing, modeling, acting and even professional cheerleading. While working as a university financial advisor, Andrea prayed for her chance to share her gifts with the world and step into the spotlight. One day she was asked by her supervisor to do a standup comedy routine for an event and what started out as an unconceivable request gave birth to the Baby Girl of Comedy.  Over 5 years later, Andrea has catapulted onto the family-friendly comedy scene performing alongside comedy veterans such as Akintunde, Chinnitta “Chocolate” Morris, Small Fire, Bob Nelson, Todd Oliver and John Gray.
Marcus D. Wiley: Christian scene-stealer Marcus D. Wiley has taken clean comedy to the upper echelon of entertainment.  Wooing the masses (and not just Catholics), Wiley’s widespread appeal is contemporary enough to entice the fashion-savvy and culturally conscious Generation Xs, Ys, and Zs, but traditional enough to melt the matriarchs as he recounts Mama’s mandates
