Summary

From website: The Bridgetown Comedy Festival will be marking its debut as an annual Portland event with an amazing lineup of over forty comedians from the Pacific Northwest and around the country, all performing to help raise funds for the Oregon Red Cross. The scheduled performers include such notable comics as Patton Oswalt, Brent Weinbach, Howard Kremer, Jonah Ray, Natasha Leggero, Eddie Pepitone, Matt Braunger, Morgan Murphy, Chris Fairbanks and Michelle Biloon, whose resumes include shows like The Sarah Silverman Program , Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Reno 911!, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Last Comic Standing, Upright Citizens Brigade and Comedy Central Presents , and films such as the smash hit Old School and Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. The festival provides a unique opportunity to expose Portland to the burgeoning comedy scenes in Seattle, Portland and Vancouver, as well as bringing in top talent from markets such as Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York.

With multiple stages in the "Stumble Zone" of Upper Hawthorne running over the course of the weekend, the Bridgetown Comedy Festival provides something for everyone. The lineup represents a diverse set of acts ranging from standup to sketch to musical comedy, and it incorporates groups who have built enormous fan bases from the ground up, such as Seattle's much-lauded People's Republic of Komedy, San Francisco sketch juggernaut Boomtime, and even Portland favorite The Famous Mysterious Actor Show Players. Bridgetown is pleased to announce that the hit podcast Guys With Feelings will also be recording an episode live at Mt. Tabor Legacy Theater, with hosts Jason Nash and Jeff Bumgarner and guest appearances by some of the funniest comics in the festival.

Due to overwhelming demand, admission to Saturday's Mt. Tabor Theater shows are wristband-only!
