Headliner

Jaci Terjeson is an up-and-coming comedian from Seattle who’s sharp wit and physical comedy has solidified her as a force to be reckoned with. In 2023, she was a finalist in the prestigious Seattle International Comedy Competition, where she placed every night of the competition. Jaci was also a top finalist in Nate Jackson’s Funniest MF contest and was a selected performer at Treefort Festival, Upper Left Comedy Fest, and NW Women’s Comedy Festival.

Merit Kahn is a producer, playwright, and comedian, taking her one-woman inspiring comedy show on the road to dazzle audiences from coast to coast—whether in packed theaters or at lively nonprofit fundraisers. As a professional keynote speaker and conference emcee, she expertly weaves business lessons into her humor-filled, interactive sessions, delighting sales and leadership audiences. Embracing her motto, ‘Tragedy plus time equals comedy, but who says it has to take a long time?’ she proves that a quick wit can make anything funny, fast.

Stacy Pederson has almost died several times, was raised by hippie parents, and has accidentally blown the button off her pants on more than one occasion. She recently won first place out of comedians in “Colorado’s Got Talent” and appears in many commercials. She is a national speaker and likes to speak to organizations of all types for the simple fact she gets to stay in hotels, and hotels have housekeepers.

She also suffers from terrible stage fright.

Cara Rosellini is a stand up comedian, actor and writer who started her career in Los Angeles and continues to work in Seattle. Her dry style and sharp writing keeps a captive audience laughing…or at least curious. She was recently a semi-finalist in Washington’s Funniest Mammal Competition, has competed in the Seattle Comedy Competition and is a regular feature and recent headliner in Washington clubs such as Laugh’s and Club Comedy.
