August 7-9th at the Hotel del Coronado:
Ron Pearson
Comedian Ron Pearson had a World Record for juggling at the age of 15. Not bad for a childhood street performer who took his talents all the way to Hollywood! As the baby of eight children, comedy seemed to be the only way to get attention and attention he got! The Hollywood Reporter called him, “a comic ball of fire.” The Los Angeles Times wrote, “I laughed so hard my jaws ached.” Not only does Ron juggle in his act, he also juggles his Hollywood career. As a stand up comedian, Ron has made hundreds of TV appearances doing stand up on shows like The Late Late Show, Chelsea Lately, The Dennis Miller Show and Comedy Central. As an actor, Ron has also done numerous roles over the years. You might recognize him from his recurring roles on shows like That 70s Show, The George Lopez Show, The Drew Carey Show, Boston Legal, Two Guys and a Girl, Norm, the feature film Little Black Book or the Disney Channel film Starstruck. He also starred for two years on the series Malcolm and Eddie.
Gerry Bednob
A self-described class clown in school, Gerry Bednob worked as a high school counselor until he decided to try out open mic night at Yuk Yuk’s comedy club in Canada. His initial fear of bombing on stage resulted in huge laughs from the crowd and got him an invite from the owner of the club to come back. He became relatively well-known on the comedy club circuit performing throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. He made appearances on The Wonder Years and Encino Man before winning the 1993 Star Search International Stand Up Competition. It was as a comic where he met writer/director Judd Apatow and was cast as Mr. Burundi on the Fox television show, Undeclared. This relationship led to Bednob’s breakthrough role in the smash hit, The 40 Year Old Virgin. He would follow up on the success of this with numerous roles in film and television including Witless Protection and Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.
