Kevin O'Shea

Commonly described as clever, absurd, awkward but in a funny way and too smart for his own good, Kevin O’Shea has been on IFC and ComedyCentral.com. He is a favorite of comedy festivals such as The SF SketchFest and the Bridgetown Comedy Festival. In 2012 he co-founded Cynic Cave, San Francisco and possibly the nation’s only comedy show in the basement of a video store. It grew to become one of SF’s most beloved comedy shows, garnering praise from the San Francisco Chronicle and the SF Weekly.

He now resides in Brooklyn, NY with his feelings.Kevin is by far one of the most impressive and unique joke writers I’ve ever encountered. A little dark and crass, he’s challenging, makes you work for it. He’s also nice and hard working. Embodies San Francisco’s wit and grit. "Make time to see him!" - Courting Comedy OJ Patterson
