Robert Duchaine - Headliner

Duchaine is a surly misanthrope. His sarcastic social commentary pokes fun at a myriad of topics including race, religion, and relationships.

He’s been kicked out of every organization he was ever forced to join, from the Cub Scouts to the U.S. Army, and fired from every job he ever finagled. Robert finally found a refuge where he can make his own rules - the stand-up comedy stage.

Now an established national touring headliner, Robert performs regularly in Las Vegas show rooms, colleges, comedy clubs and concert venues. Duchaine is also involved in avant-garde theater and independent film. Robert's unique perspective fuels an act that pushes the envelope. Duchaine is candid, entertaining, and always hilarious!

Tom McClain – Feature
Comedian Tom McClain is probably best known as the larger than life, hard hitting funnyman from Sacramento. His trademark Football Jersey and backwards ball cap lend no indication to his intelligent thought provoking humor. His razor sharp material along with his exceptionally quick wit tantalizes audiences from beginning to end. Within the first few minutes, the audience feels like they have known Tom for years.

Tom draws from his many rich life experiences to relate to his audiences. Whether he is discussing growing up in one of Sacramento’s roughest neighborhoods or fulfilling his 4 year military commitment, audiences get a clear image of where Tom came from. He has a unique ability to share the most intimate details of his current marriage and his past relationships.  Often described as “Everyone’s Favorite Drinking Buddy”, Tom has an uncanny ability to draw out the fun loving, often immature adult in all of us.

Professionally, Tom is making an impact on the local and national scene. Tom has appeared on a number of CBS Television Network hit shows like “CSI: New York”, “Without a Trace”, “Shark”, and the short-lived “Viva Laughlin”.  He performed in front of over 17,000 rabid Kings Fans as a part of an NBA Pre-game show at Sacramento’s Arco Arena. His hometown enjoys Tom’s frequent appearances on the Kings TV Broadcasts as well as his occasional performances on the popular “Good Day Sacramento” television program.

Tom has worked at a number of Comedy Clubs, Casino’s, Colleges, and Special Events. He is a regular at reputable clubs in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Reno, and Sacramento. He is a regular Headliner at the popular “Downtown Comedy Club” in Los Angeles.
