About the comedians:
JON HANCUFF
Jon Hancuff started doing comedy in 1992 and in 1993 he won the Indiana University Campus Comedy Competition. In 1996, he moved to Seattle for a girl, gave up comedy, got dumped, and moved back to Indiana. It was 13 years before he went back on stage. During that time, the life experience he gained (marriage, parenthood, career, divorce, second marriage, lots of dining out) would serve as the catalyst for his second attempt at achieving standup comedy mediocrity. He won the 2011 Bob and Tom Comedy All Star Contest and the 2013 Bloomington Comedy Contest. He has released two EPs—“Live at the Comedy Attic” (Flannelgraph Records) and “I Made a Wish” (Let’s Pretend Records) and in 2019, he released “Hack” a full-length album (Busy Little Beaver Recordings). In addition, Jon’s between-marriage dating experiences (and the notes he kept about those experiences) were part of the inspiration for the independent film “All the Others Were Practice.”
KRISTEN LUCAS
Kristen realized they were painfully awkward at a very young age and has been trying to make you laugh ever since. They are the winner of the 2016 Funniest Person In Bloomington Contest. You can find them posting too many photos of their dog on social media, leaving an unsorted relationship between them and their cat.
MO MITCHELL
Now based out of Indianapolis, Mo Mitchell is a midwestern regional darling, having been featured in Limestone Comedy Festival’s Blooming10 for a majority of her tenure as a townie. The hustle and bustle of the big city hasn’t changed her, promise!
JOEY CERONE
Joey Cerone is a Bloomington comedian by way of Fishers, IN. His unique style of comedy consists of both set ups and punchlines and occasionally, twists. He is also the 19th president and head writer of All Sorts of Trouble Boy in the Bubble, IU’s longest running sketch comedy troupe. He’s been featured in the World Comedy Expo, the Spark! Festival, and the Bloomington Comedy Competition. He enjoys having fun among other things.
