BIG VINO
Big Vino is an authentic comedic voice whose hilarious anecdotes and candid insights endear him to all generations. From relationship advice to snack tips, no topic is off limits to larger-than-life personality.
You may have seen him at the Improv, the Laugh Factory and the Funny Bone but Vino’s journey started in Newark, New Jersey where he was born and raised. As a child, his natural charisma and eagerness to entertain should have been a clue to what his future would hold. But like far too many who grew up in the urban jungle, the temptation of “Street Life” would seduce him and he would squander years of potential deeply invested in a game that would claim so many of his friends’ lives. At his core, Big Vino sought to leave the lifestyle of drugs and crime, so he packed up and moved away from everything he knew to try his hand at ordinary life in Virginia.
Adjusting to legitimate work was harder than expected and Vino soon found himself itching to get back to his old ways. That is until an old friend reminded him of a time when he joked his way out of a gunfight. It was the elephant in the room he had been ignoring his whole life. He’d learned to use his sense of humor and street savvy to navigate through life, why not take those same skills to the stage?
A true comedy rookie, Big Vino AKA #MrFeedYoGirl, looked to debut his raw talents on one of the biggest of stages: a packed house at the Virginia Beach Funny Bone’s Clash of the Comics. That night he captured the audience’s hearts and indefinitely set the tone for his career as another great comedian to be cultivated by Virginia’s top comedy club.
Although he didn’t win that night, victory would not elude him long and he would soon be added to the club’s roster of paid regulars.
Since then, thousands of fans have been left crying from laughter in his wake in comedy clubs around the country. He has opened for some of the biggest names in comedy (Cocoa Brown, D.L. Hughley, Ali Siddiq, Finesse Mitchell, Karlous Miller, Micheal Colyar, etc) and have been stamped “Next Up”. Don’t miss your opportunity to catch this rising star live on stage!
CHRISTOPHER ROBBINS
A true Midwestern Millennial, his misdirection and light take on dark humor will have you giggling the entire night. A “blink and you’ll miss it” approach to everyday life, and his uncanny ability to stack punch lines, you’ll understand why in his 2.5 years of comedy he’s been featured on the “Don’t Tell Comedy” series and has opened/featured for some of the South’s biggest names in comedy!
JOEL FUSTER
Meet Joel Fuster, the Bronx-born comic who has swapped New York’s hustle for Raleigh’s southern charm. Since moving to North Carolina, Joel has been making waves across the Triangle, leaving audiences in stitches with his sharp observational humor and witty takes on family life.
Joel’s comedy is a hilarious mix of everyday absurdities and personal anecdotes, drawing laughter from the quirks and chaos of life. He’s got a talent for finding the funny light at the end of the family tunnel, making you laugh at the things you never knew you could.
Off-stage, he’s just as entertaining. You can catch Joel either struggling to dance to appease his Dominican ancestors or strumming acoustic covers of Enrique Iglesias songs. He also supports the local comedy community, managing an Instagram page dedicated to growing and promoting the NC Triangle comedy scene.
Joel Fuster isn’t just a comedian; he’s a performer with heart, bringing humor and community together. Catch him live for a night that’s guaranteed to be full of laughs and good vibes.

“Fun atmosphere, hilarious comics and a great vibe is what I got from a random Friday night at the PLAYHOUSE Nightclub. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the show and look to go there again. Glad that Jacksonville finally has a comedy club and something to do that is hilarious to blow off steam from a long work week. Highly recommend for anyone, either it being solo, on a date or with a group this will be a very enjoyable night at PLAYHOUSE!!”“We enjoyed the comedy show. We were politely welcomed at the door by the owner. The seating areas do have comfortable cushioned chairs. We sat in the bar area to watch a two hour show. I was not disappointed. The ambiance was great for date-night with my husband. We shared several drinks and lots of laughs together. We look forward to another date-night at the Playhouse.”"My wife and I was looking for something new to do in Jacksonville NC. So we decided to try out Playhouse. It didn’t disappoint was amazing Chris Robbins was an awesome host and the comedians were funny as hell. The waiters were on point serving drinks. We will definitely be doing this more often!""LOVEEEEE going to Playhouse! It’s such a great time and the perfect way to spend a Friday evening. We’ve been several times over the last few months and the comics just keep getting better. The atmosphere and drinks are good, and the host is okay too (jk he’s awesome!). I’m glad we have something like this to do in Jacksonville."
