KeLanna Spiller
KeLanna Spiller, originally hailing from Pine Bluff, AR, now calls Dallas, TX home. In just a few short years, she's graced the stages of renowned comedy venues like the Addison and Arlington Improv alongside national headliners. Finalist in the prestigious Funniest Comic in Texas competition at the Improv Comedy Club. Her dynamic storytelling and keen observational humor have earned her a cherished spot among Dallas' comedy scene favorites. It was her unforgettable Comedy Central television debut on Kevin Hart Presents: Hart of the City that catapulted her onto the global stage. Since then, she's been delighting audiences at clubs across the globe with her infectious energy and wit.
Hector Sifuentes
Hector Sifuentes is a first generation Mexican-American stand-up comedian hailing from Dallas, Texas. Born to a mother from Parral, Chihuahua, and a father from San Agustin De Ocampo, Durango, Mexico, Hector’s unique cultural background infuses his comedy with witty observations and relatable anecdotes that captivate audiences with laughter and resonate with diverse communities.
Marena Riyad
Palestinian American Actor and Comedian from Dallas, TX. Producer of Kufiya Comedy show and festival. Marena is touring the country and internationally performing in clubs, independent shows, and private parties; while also producing her own “Kufiya Comedy” shows and festivals. She’s worked with Tabish Hashmi, Maz Jobrani and Fahim Anwar; participated in the The Fringe Festival 2025, and was a Finalist for “Funniest Comic in the Heartland” & Semi-finalist for “Funniest comic in TX”.
Nimesh Patel
Nimesh is a Dallas-based comedian who has worked with the likes of Tom Segura, Ralph Barbosa, Matt Friend, Tommy Brennan and now finds himself quickly rising the ranks in the DFW scene. His sharp rise was validated by being a finalist for “The Funniest Comic in Dallas” less than 2 years in. He has a laidback comedic style that includes observational humor, storytelling, and witty life insights. His friends and family call him a comedian but Nimesh just considers himself a dude that takes jokes a little too seriously. And while he has a ton of fun doing it…he’ll happily retire if a Wingstop sponsorship is ever presented to him.
