Mike Paterson’s stand up comedy is like a bumpy dune buggy ride through a zany garden of make believe. Although Mike could be said to perform situational comedy, it is as likely that the situation occurs on the the city planet of Coruscant as down here on Earth.

Bill Brownstein, from the Montreal Gazette, loves to describe Mike as “gonzo comedian Mike Paterson,” an apt description, as Mike’s world is just a little bit wacky, a little bit unexpected and all hilarious.

Over the last eight years Bryan has become one of the most versatile and entertaining acts on the comedy circuit. Bryan's ability to blend his show with polished jokes and spontaneous 'riffing' has quickly made him an audience favorite all over the country. Raised in the country and living in the city has made Bryan a well-rounded act who's accessible for all: corporate events, colleges, fundraisers, and of course, the clubs. Check him out; you'll be glad you did!

"Much of Hatt's act seems to take place between the legs, and covers the familiar ground of being a sad-sack, single guy, but there are brains at work in his bits too. Hatt's act is more palatable without being PG-13. There's always a wink and implied nudge behind his Don Rickles-ish needling." - Eye Magazine
