About the Comedians
Vicky Kuperman is the co-creator of the Love's a Joke tour along with her husband, comedian Max Cohen, but she does most of the work because she's the woman. The Russian-born comedian has performed globally for over a decade and was named one of Huffington Post's new comedians to watch. She's been seen on Live From Gotham, Nickelodeon, The Maxim comedy Showcase and heard regularly on SiriusXM.
Max Cohen has performed his unique brand of self-deprecating yet tasteful and hilarious comedy at clubs from Seattle to South Africa. Finally making his home in New York City, he brings the confusions and bewilderments of his life from the family dinner table to stages such as the Gotham Comedy Club, Broadway Comedy Club, and Stand Up NY. He was a semifinalist in The Great Long Island Laugh Off and published in "Urbasm" magazine.
Jamie Roberts gained an interest in comedy after being crowned 'Funniest Person' by his senior class in High School. His first major win came at Stand Up NY, where he convinced the judges and won his next title, 'Funniest Person from the Suburbs'. Since then, he's wowed hundreds of audiences and has been featured on MTV, Tidal, XM Radio, The Grio, The Root and New York's 770 WABC Radio and Radio 103.9.
