Come Laugh With Your Loved One!

Tickets: $30 (fees not included)

This Valentine’s Day at the Avalon, the Ivy League of Comedy presents Skirmish of the Sexes(sm), a hilarious night of four comic pros who have, let’s just say, relationships that may not be as strong as yours... but they are way funnier!

Karen Bergreen, a regular on the New York City stand-up scene, has made several appearances on The Jim Gaffigan Show as well as performing on The View and Comedy Central, to name a few. Currently producing and starring in the Ruthless Comedy Hour, a monthly live comic variety show, she is also the co-host of Shut Up Mommy's Talking, a parenting podcast for people who don't want advice.

Calise Hawkins is a stand-up comedian and writer. She has performed her standup on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Nick Mom’s Night Out, and she was a cast member of Oxygen’s Funny Girls. She has written for Comedy Central’s @midnight, Hood Adjacent with James Davis, HBO's That Damn Michael Che, and Hulu's Everything's Trash.

Tony Deyo is a comedian known most notably for his sharp, quick material and near-perfect comedic timing. New York City's Village Voice calls him “one of the tightest joke writers in the business.” In 2013, he made his late night television debut on Conan. Within a year, he had added appearances on The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson, AXS TV's Gotham Comedy Live, and Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen.

Stand-up comedian Shaun Eli has rightfully been called one of America’s smartest comics. Whether it’s a story about dining with a vegetarian or successfully fighting a parking ticket in criminal court, Shaun the master storyteller shows you that there’s hilarity in the ordinary. With a sense of humor that’s both cheerful and universal, Shaun has headlined shows around the world and was featured in the NY Times.
