Laugh On

This year's comedy festival promises three weeks of side-splitting laughs
by Gerald Chew

Rounding out the stand-up acts is a blonde Los Angeles babe, Karen Loftus who is the Pamela Anderson of comedy. A warm and engaging person, her act is high energy and hilarious, dancing the fine line between smart and silly, with razor sharp observations, crazy characters and stories. Highly awarded with fellowships and arts grants, her shows have won critical acclaim, with Loftus being called "Woman to Watch" by Ms. Magazine last year.
