Comedian Bios:
Aaron Kominos-Smith has appeared on Comedy Central’s Inside Amy Schumer, Live at Gotham on the Oculus NextVR Network, MTV, and American Movie Classic. Audiences connect instantly with Aaron’s charming wit and energetic characters. His humor varies from observational thoughts on the mundane to articulated commentary about society sprinkled with a few dashes of wackiness. Simultaneously performing comedy and studying architecture in college, Aaron went on to work as a professional architect. After he realized that buildings take years to complete while a joke can instantly bring people joy, he made the switch from constructing buildings to constructing jokes. Aaron regularly works the clubs in New York City along with touring colleges across the country.
Aaron will be recording his comedy special in September and looks forward to giving you the preview.
Liz Barrett is a New York City based stand-up comedian and writer. Raised in a military family and having moved all around the world, Liz is deadpan, dry, engaging, and offers shrewd observations about life and womanhood. You’ll remember her one-liners long after you see her.
Liz has appeared on AXS TV Gotham Comedy Live, Laughs on FOX, Lifetime, Funny or Die and New York Post Videos. You can also hear her on SiriusXM. She’s a regular at Carolines, Gotham Comedy Club, New York Comedy Club, Catch a Rising Star and The Brokerage. She was a finalist at Laughing Skull Comedy Festival and The She-Devil Comedy Festival and a semi-finalist at Boston Comedy Festival.
Liz has appeared at numerous comedy festivals including, Limestone Comedy Festival, Women in Comedy Festival, Red Clay Comedy Festival, Rogue Island Comedy Festival, and Ladies of Laughter.
Molly Kornfeld is an up and coming NYC based comedian! She is the daughter of two comedians (one of whom previously performed at Rye) and is following in their footsteps to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
Molly’s comedy revolves around her dating life (ugh men, am I right?), her family (her dad now likes men! How unique!), and her everyday experiences as a woman (the struggle is VERY real).
Molly performs at clubs all over New York including New York Comedy Club, Governor’s Comedy Clubs, The Stand, the Tiny Cupboard and QED. She has also been featured in numerous comedy festivals, such as the Boston Comedy Festival, Women in Comedy Festival, Ladies of Laughter and Rogue Island Comedy Festival. She was named as a Comic to Watch in the 2022 New York Comedy Festival.
Two days after Michelle Slonim gave birth to a baby girl, Michelle received an email saying she was cast in a sketch for Late Night With Seth Meyers. Michelle had gone on tons of auditions: once in a chicken costume, another time in a bikini while eight months pregnant, and she never got the part. Now a week after her baby was welcomed into the world, Michelle’s in hair, makeup and wardrobe, on set for a major network television show. She plans to have a second child so she can make an appearance on Colbert. Michelle has appeared on web-shows for Comedy Central and HBO and on SiriusXM Radio. You can see her performing stand-up comedy in most clubs and bar shows in New York City.
Ben Rosenfeld’s comedy is “playfully dark, seriously smart.” Ben’s comedy blends his family’s experience as Russian Jewish immigrants in America with his philosophical beliefs, political observations and unique characters. Ben has been seen on BuzzFeedVideo and is slightly “TikTok famous” with over a quarter-million followers and 11 million likes. He’s also appeared on FOX’s Laughs, Travel Channel’s Mysteries At The Museum, CBS This Morning, Nat Geo’s Brain Games, Netflix’s Brainchild, NPR’s Weekend Edition, FOX News Saturday Night, SiriusXM Radio, The New York Post and been featured as TimeOut New York’s Joke of the Week. He has twice headlined at Caroline’s on Broadway, hosted at the Lincoln Center and performs nightly in New York City. Ben has five comedy albums and two illustrated humor books.
