Producers Anne and Jon Fox of San Rafael take great pride in bringing this legendary event to their home town each year.

They will again be presenting two preliminary round shows on consecutive Saturdays, so fans will have the opportunity to enjoy the entire field of amazing talent vying for $15,000 in prize money and untold glory.

Each contestant will perform their very best five to seven-minute set, hosted by a former finalist.

Past participants in this important showcase include the likes of Dana Carvey, Ellen DeGeneres, Marc Maron, Patton Oswalt, Paula Poundstone, Rory Shovel, Wanda Sykes, Jimmy O. Yang and, of course, the one-and-only Robin Williams.
