Jagodowski, Dave Pasquesi (Veep), Jean Villepique (The Office), Christina Gausas (30 Rock/Conan), Rachel Hamilton (30 Rock), Kevin Mullaney, Michael Delaney (Conan), Charlie Todd (Improv Everywhere), Jeff Hiller (Somebody Somewhere), and Charlie Sanders (Key & Peele).

 

Kelly is now looking to share his knowledge in comedy to help build and curate a wonderful community in Welland that includes talents from around the world who all share a deep appreciation for the human activity of laughter.
