Over the past few years Ran’D has become one of the MOST sought-after performers in the industry, because his show is Highly entertaining, engaging and can be performed in small, large, indoor, or outdoor venues. Mr. Shine’s magical style draws from his playful interactive relationship with his audience combined with his psychological illusions, sleight of hand and storytelling. A few of his accomplishments include performing in 27 countries including Navy bases in Japan, South Korea, and Singapore. He has been voted College Magician of the year three times, and has appeared on CW's Penn & Teller Fool US, Masters of Illusions and The B.E.T. Network. In addition, he has also opened for Trevor Noah and performed for two presidential inaugurations.

Derrick is a high-energy, quick-witted comedian who has been entertaining people his whole life. He officially made his start doing stand up comedy after his first year in college, at the age of 19, and he never looked back. Since then, Derrick has become one of the fastest rising comedians and is the youngest comedian to be a regular feature act at his home club, the Pittsburgh Improv. He has also performed on Comedy Central's New Talent Search, The OddBall Comedy Festival and won Stand Up To Cancer's Comedy Festival, as well as the Cleveland Comedy Festival. Derrick uses his quick witted and awkward personality to connect to any audience often by making them part of the show, through crowd work to keep the audience engaged and laughing throughout the night! He’s performed at hundreds of colleges, clubs, and corporate events across the country and has earned some awards including “One of the Highest Rated Comedians” by Campus Activities Magazine and was a National Comedian of the Year Finalist for the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities. Currently, he is filming a show he developed for the PGA Tour called Comedians in Carts Making Bogeys. And when he's not on the golf course he can be seen sharing the stage with many greats such as Dave Coulier, Rob Schneider, Bill Burr, Jim Jefferies, Bo Burnham, John Mulaney, Josh Wolf and many more. This is one show you do not want to miss! Derrick has also been called "The Best Comedian Working Today!", by his mother, so you know that's not biased at all. Follow us @OneontaAC for updates.

ABOUT PAUL CONYERS, WHO IS ME**But only to me. To you, you're "me" and I'm someone else. Got it? Super. Let's read a bio. Hi there! If you're reading this, you're either A) one of my relatives who's "just tickled to see that Pauly has his own website," or B) someone I met after a show who only wanted to say "nice job" as you were leaving but was pestered into coming here. Either way, good to have you. My name is Paul Conyers and I'm a comedian from the San Francisco Bay Area. I've been able to perform all over California and beyond. I am excited to continue my comedy journey by entertaining one disinterested dive bar crowd at a time. Here's some cool stuff that's happened to me: Released debut special in 2020, Above The Fray. Winner of the 2020 World Series of Comedy Main Event in Las Vegas, NV. Performed in the SF Sketchfest Comedy Festival 2019 & 2020. Performed at the Big Pine Comedy Festival, Oakland Comedy Festival & more. Currently playing on SiriusXM Radio, Spotify & Pandora. Performed at Laughs for Life, a benefit for San Francisco Suicide Prevention. Paid regular at clubs & casinos all over the U.S. & Canada. One time I rode a saddled triceratops at the Creation Museum in Boone County, Kentucky and he looked less than thrilled.
