While the full list of performers has yet to be announced, past comedians have included Hannibal Buress, Michael Che, Mike O'Brien, Judah Friedlander and Trevor Noah, plus up-and-coming acts that you can see before they become big stars. 2020 highlights will include NPR’s Ask Me Another, hosted by Ophira Eisenberg, at the Bell House (April 1), and Jo Firestone hosting Friends of Single People at Littlefield (April 2).
