The Heroes of Humor Return Home
Professionally touring comedians
King Rich and
Kyle Davis return home to Wilmington for a special weekend at Nutt St Comedy Room entitled “All Roads Lead Home.”
Wilmington NC – October 25, 2010 – It has been twelve months since Wilmington professional comedians KING RICH and KYLE DAVIS (collectively known as the Justice League of Comedy) have played to a home crowd. After a year spent touring over forty cities around the country (see a partial list at: justiceleagueofcomedy.com/credits), they are coming back together for a very special two-night event at Nutt St Comedy Room (225 N Front Street, basement below The Soapbox) in Wilmington NC. The show will be hosted by local comedian Mike Santo and seating is limited.
In November of 2009, the Justice League of Comedy filmed their first DVD release at Nutt St Comedy Room (an all-new revised version of which will be available at the shows). Almost exactly a year and over ten-thousand miles later, the Heroes of Humor celebrate a homecoming after having seen more of the country (i.e. interstates) and each other than they thought they could stand.
"We've been fortunate," claims Justice League of Comedy founder King Rich, "to expand our reach and perform across the country … from Montana to Texas to New York City. These days, everybody needs a laugh and we're just trying to be the heroes that fill that need. But coming home and performing for our home town … now that promises to be something very special."

KING RICH is a nationally touring comedian who has appeared on HBO, TBS, Court TV and the upcoming feature film Writer's Block. He has played colleges and clubs throughout the country including Gotham, EastVille, Laugh Lounge, the Laugh Factory, New York Comedy Club – Boca Raton, Groucho's Comedy Club, DSI Comedy Theater, the Charleston Comedy Festival, LeMoyne College (Syracuse NY) and various military installations, most recently Camp Lejuene in Jacksonville NC. He's featured for nationally touring headliners such as Basile, Rollin' Jay Moore, Just June and Tim Statum and headlined dozens of venues across the U.S. including the Dallas Comedy Festival, The Treehouse (Austin, TX), Joker's Icehouse (Killeen TX) and DirtySexyComedy (Spring TX).
KYLE DAVIS is one of the hottest rising comedic stars in the nation. He was fortunate enough to be raised in a community that was supportive of the arts and his participation in them. He made his show-business debut at the age of five when he was cast as an extra in Matlock ... he didn't have any lines and his scene was eventually cut because the producers thought he was "too cute." As he grew older he realized that actors scare him and turned his attention to stand-up comedy. In a very short span of time he has entertained audiences from coast to coast and, in addition to working frequently with JLC partner King Rich, has also worked with headliners including Gary Conrad, MG Gaskin, Mello Mike and a host of others.
