Marcus Martin at Canton Comedy Boom

Join Canton Comedy Boom on Saturday, April 18th for a night of hilarious stand-up comedy with one of Stark County’s fastest-rising stars!

Marcus Martin is a two-time Ohio Comedian of the Year (Ohio Entertainment Awards) whose real, raw, and hilarious storytelling has made him a national crowd favorite. He’s opened for Ryan Davis, Eddie Griffin, D.L. Hughley, and Gary Owen, and his stand-up specials are available on YouTube under “Comedian Marcus Martin.” He is the consummate performer, but don’t let his charm disarm you, Marcus is a killer on the stage, and we are thrilled to book him as a headliner!

The show also features Tyrone Gaines, G.W. Nell and Hendoh, two of Northeast Ohio’s funniest working comics.

Tyrone Gaines has a smooth, yet rapid-fire delivery that eliminates the fluff and gets right to the funny. His insightful, quick-witted takes on life and relationships are what make his stand-up stand out. He's performed with some of the legends in comedy, including Charles Walden, Dominique, Kenny Howell, Tony Tone, Rodney Perry, Mike Bonner, Damon Williams and Shang Forbes.

G.W. Nell is high energy, bawdy, and self-deprecating with an act that is as obscene as it is confident. G.W. captivates crowds with her trademark vulnerability, raunchy honesty, and wild antics. She’s a member of the Females of Comedy, and has been filling rooms with laughter in multiple states for years.

Hendoh is a true Buckeye State native who brings a refreshing style of satire to the stage. His past life experiences as a combat veteran and African American parent bring an interesting perspective to the chaos of the day-to-day. Hendoh’s act highlights disparity with a disgruntlement that is multiculturally and multigenerationally relatable.

As always, the Second April gallery and shops will be open prior to the show, and we encourage you to visit our website for a list of bars, restaurants, and shops within walking distance of the show!
