About the Performers

Dave Pokorny was able to quit his day job, and make his living as a stand-up comic.  He toured the western half of the U.S. for nearly ten years, opening up for such talents as Jim Carrey, Ellen DeGeneres and Bob Saget to name a few. After becoming the house emcee at San Francisco’s #1 comedy club and a regular at the Rivieria in Las Vegas, he gave it all up to pursue a lucrative career as a stay-at-home dad.  Seven macaroni & cheese filled years later he returns to the stage performing excerpts of his autobiographical solo piece, Based on a True Story.

Jennifer Jajeh is a San Francisco based actor who has appeared in numerous film and theatre productions on both coasts. This August she debuted her solo show, I Heart Hamas: And Other Things I’m Afraid to Tell You, at the New York International Fringe Festival. The show is currently being redeveloped for a full run.  For more info about the show visit www.ihearthamas.com

Lee Granas is excited to perform with Tell it on Tuesday. After returning from watching Equus on Broadway and studying the great Daniel Radcliffe, she is now ready to make her Bay Area debut. Lee has previously performed in such locations as her friends’ kitchen, the office water cooler, and BART. Lee is grateful for everyone at the Laguna Writers Workshop who encouraged her to bring her stories to a wider audience.

Carolyn Doyle has performed as a writer / solo performer at The Marsh with the Marsh Rising series, CounterPULSE’s Words First series, the SF Solo Festival, Thursday Night Combo at EXIT Theatre, the SF Theatre Festival and with Tell It on Tuesday! Carolyn is a member of the Artists Development Lab at Z Space and is slated for a three-week run at The Marsh with her full length piece Confessions of a Refrigerator Mother.
