JAY MARTIN: Born in Jamaica, Jay Martin was always the entertainer, cracking up school friends with his spot-on accent imitations — from mimicking his father to his East Indian neighbors. As fate would have it, one night, Canadian comic giant Russell Peters happened to be sitting in the audience and was immediately impressed with Jay’s first public performance ... so much so, that Peters decided to take Jay under his wing and invited him to open for him across the country — and, the rest, as the saying goes, is history.
Martin has toured with many giants since then, including, Jamie Foxx, Brian McKnight and Kirk Franklin.

MARK TRINIDAD: Comedy Giant, born and raised on the twin island republic of Trinidad and Tobago,
Marc Trinidad has a commanding persona, piercing eyes and the perfect humour that makes laugh your socks off. his is a typical comic’s story of being the class clown, fully equipped with wit and great non-verbal skills that lighten up any dull situation. If that’s not enough, his bold eyes and ‘ratbat’ ears will certainly do the trick.
