Forrest Shaw is not fond of stupid people. Lucky for him there is stand-up comedy, the perfect way to vent his frustrations while also sharing his own faults and failures with the audience. Opening up about his gambling addiction, struggles with health, and his life in Miami as a marine biologist, Forrest delivers his stand-up with an intriguingly unique perspective. He became a comic after a decade as a marine biologist. Saving manatees and counting seagrass by day, at night, he dedicated himself to comedy, quickly working his way into regular club work and eventually having to retire from his career as a scientist. Forrest Shaw is a sharp, cynical critic of our shortcomings as a species, and points out these observations with precision in his hard-hitting, quick-witted act.

He’s performed at Netfilx is a Joke Fest, Moontower Comedy Festival, Clusterfest, JFL Montreal and Bridgetown Comedy Festival and been featured on CONAN, Live From Gotham and Jim Jefferies and Friends. His debut special, Poor Decisions can be seen on Amazon.

As a writer Forrest’s resume includes The Conor Moore Show, Better Off with Hally Leadbetter, On Tour on Course and the Jim Jefferies Show where he also regularly appeared on screen.

Opener – Lisa Corrao: At under 5 feet tall, Lisa Corrao is the tiniest stand-up comedy-powerhouse you’ll ever meet. Lisa lights up stages from comedy clubs to comic cons worldwide. She’s toured with legends like Patton Oswalt and the late, iconic Gilbert Gottfried, and even packs up her jokes to bring them to U.S. military bases around the globe. You’ve heard Lisa on Sirius/Xm as well as her podcast, “Safe Space” with Dana Snyder and Dino Stamatopoulos. You might also recognize her as the unforgettable Ramona the Witch on Nickelodeon’s “Every Witch Way.” Now, she’s spicing things up with her new, hilarious cooking show, “Lisa Loves Food!”
