Brian Atkinson and Sam Rager – Comedy at the Sperry’s Moviehouse in Holland, MI on Saturday, June 13 at 8:00pm (PG-13).
Brian Atkinson
The Nicest Voice in Comedy. Brian Atkinson is a comedian who played a serial killer on TV while doing voices for PBS Kids. This guy-next-door with a radio voice talks about his career in broadcasting, voiceover, and being adopted twice, with twisted observations of everyday life. Brian is an award-winning comedian: Best of The Bash 2022, 2023, and 2025, World Series of Comedy 2023 and 2025 Wildcard 1st Place Winner and 2023-2026 Top 40 Comic. Brian is so funny, you might not notice he’s working clean.
Sam Rager
Sam Rager offers audiences a charmingly dark perspective. Layering playful anecdotes with vulnerable pieces, she is able to connect with people on a deeper, yet sometimes uncomfortable level. Sam was one of Laughfest’s “Best of the Midwest” in 2019, a headliner at the inaugural Detroit Women of Comedy Festival, and both of her albums, Hot Dog Hands and Trigger Warning*, can be heard on SiriusXM. With the energy of an unhinged camp counselor, Sam Rager leans into grief, insecurities, and early aughts nostalgia.
