Frank Vignola, Headliner

Moody McCarthy, Feature Act

Frank Vignola has appeared on Comedy Central, SiriusXM, Amazon Prime, and Montreal’s prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival. A seasoned New York comic with decades of stage experience, Frank has toured with Armed Forces Entertainment and shared stages with legends including Robin Williams, Chris Rock, Joan Rivers, Howie Mandel, Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman, Colin Quinn, and Gilbert Gottfried. Known for clean, fast-paced humor and hilarious non-insult crowd work, Frank brings energy, polish, and big laughs to every show.

Moody McCarthy has been performing stand-up since 1992 and has appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Conan, The Late Show with David Letterman, America’s Got Talent, Last Comic Standing, SiriusXM, and more. His comedy is smart, original, universal, and effortlessly funny, with a relaxed stage presence that makes audiences feel like they’re in on the joke. Recently selected to open for Sebastian Maniscalco, Moody is a national club favorite with a sharp comedic voice and plenty of big-stage credits.

Lydia Kraniotis, Opening Act

Lydia Kraniotis is a stand-up comic with a background in improv, theater, on-camera acting, and voice acting. Her comedy style moves from personal to universal, dark to silly, spirited to deadpan — always with an unexpected twist. A DC native who has performed in both the U.S. and U.K., Lydia has appeared at Give A Hoot Comedy Club, HammerJokes Comedy Club, The Port in Baltimore, and trained with Monkey Toast London’s improv program. An oddball in the best way, Lydia kicks off the night with fresh, eclectic comedy.
