Juliana LaBarbiera: Juliana (Jules) can be seen regularly at The Comedy Store, The Ice House, and Flappers. She booked a national commercial for ESPN and still knows nothing about football. Jules loves her Nespresso more than most human beings she's come into contact with. She's incredibly tall and loud and we truly don't know who let her have a microphone.

Party Trick: Party Trick is a house sketch team from the Magnet Theater in New York, NY. While birthed in 2023, its members have long haunted the stage performing sketch, improv, musical improv, stand-up, plain old regular theatre, and dance, too. Off stage, their writing has appeared on websites like McSweeney’s, Hard Drive, and The Onion, as well as actual news websites with journalistic standards and stuff. This diverse team delights in creating ridiculous yet thought-provoking comedy to find the humor in today’s stories and social norms. Party Trick has previously been selected for festivals in DC, Austin, and Philadelphia.
