Pow Wow Comedy Jam

Get ready for all out laughs Indian style as the best and brightest Native American comedians come together for the Trail of Laughs Pow Wow Comedy Jam. Each show features these diverse and original acts, delivering comedy from a Native American perspective.

This complete 90 minute show package includes nationally touring comics; JR Redwater (Standing Rock Sioux); Marc Yaffee (Navajo); Jim Ruel (Ojibwe) and special guest Vaughn Eaglebear (Colville/Lakota Sioux).

JR Redwater (Standing Rock Sioux);
A standout comic from the Standing Rock Sioux nation, JR Redwater continues to draw rave reviews for his standup act. Drawing from life on the reservation in North Dakota, Redwater's act is a favorite at Indian casinos and tribal events as well as top comedy clubs such as The Improv and The Ice House.

"I went to an all-Indian boarding school. Yeah, boards on the windows, boards on the doors..."

Marc Yaffee (Navajo);
From U.S troops across the globe to clubs and colleges across the U.S., Marc delivers his unique brand of "scorched earth comedy." This veteran of the Boston and Las Vegas Comedy Festivals, has been seen on the TV shows, "Que Locos!" and "Funny is Funny." From his adoption and Navajo roots to life with his Jewish wife and Home schooled daughters, Marc leaves no comedy stone unturned.

"I'm a Mexican Irish Navajo, Mexi-jo. My ancestors exploited my own ancestors. I feel guilty and oppressed."

Jim Ruel (Ojibwe)

A veteran of the Chicago Comedy Festival, Jim was chosen by talent executives as one of the top comics in their 2004 NBC Diversity Talent Search. A graduate of Stanford University, Jim mines his ethnic heritage for comedic gems that hit home with all audiences.

A member of the Bay Mills Band of Ojibwe, Jim combines likability with an in-your face style that disarms, charms and entertains all at once.

"We Indians celebrate Thanksgiving Day, except that we call it You're Welcome Day."
