The Park Theatre Foundation provides West Michigan communities with entertainment and culture while empowering artists, championing self-expression, and preserving the historic Park Theatre. With a rich history dating back to 1886, the Park Theatre has been a cherished venue for generations of movie-goers and community events. Originally built as a woodworking mill and feed store, it later became the Colonial Theater. Destroyed in a fire and rebuilt, it reopened as the Park Theatre in 1936. For over six decades, the Park Theatre thrived as a beloved cultural hub, eventually closing in 1984. In December of 2001, the Park Theatre Foundation, a newly created nonprofit organization, took over ownership of the building, and a new chapter began.

Jay Hewlett

Jay Hewlett has been there, done that. He’s a man with a mission and no mission at all. He’s in tune with the times and out of tune with everyone. He’s a guy who thinks goals are for goalies. He does everything right and yet stuff happens to him. He figures it must be a conspiracy—like the time he thought he was killing it at the slots in Vegas only to realize he was putting dollars in the bill changer.
He appeared on Comic View on BET, Comedy Central, Showtime, the Boston Comedy Festival, the Sundance and Cannes Film Festivals, the Sunscreen & AOF Film Festivals. Jay performs regularly in Los Angeles at the Irvine and Brea Improv, the Ice House and El Camino Real Playhouse. He headlines regularly in Los Angeles at the Irvine Improv, the Brea Improv as well as clubs and colleges across the country, yet still makes time to entertain the troops on tour with Armed Forces Entertainment.

Brad Tassell

Brad Tassell has been called the MOST FUN COMEDIAN TO WATCH since Robin Williams, he has 30+ years a professional full-time comedian, author, speaker, educator Brad Tassell has proven he is not only hilarious, but smart, kind, useful, and the perfect performer for any group, any place, any time. In 2022 his Drybar comedy special was released to massive acclaim and views. He has been seen on CMT, ESPN, MTV, PBS, and has been one of the top comedian on Carnival Cruise lines for nearly 20 years. He also had a hugely successful Las Vegas residency at the Rio Hotel and Casino next to Penn and Teller in a show called, "Comic Therapy." Brad uses his Master's degree in Behavioral Sciences to bring solution-based interventions, award-winning, and hilarious educational keynotes on bullying prevention to schools, educators, and workshops.

Steve Goodie

Steve Goodie is, in all modesty and candor, the genius of our age. Comedian, writer, singer, director and producer, Steve was a founding member of Monty Python and has written scripts for Sid Caesar, Woody Allen, Mahatma Gandhi, Matt Groening, and Queen Elizabeth (for which he was knighted in 1972 at the unprecedented age of six). The Beatles credit much of their fame to his early studio work, during which he developed their recording sound with his apprentice, George Martin. His film scores and theatre work need no introduction, and he became a household word with his ground-breaking recording of The Biggest Belch In The History Of Man. It is a tribute to his humility that, on the suggestion of his long-time fan and sometime paramour Liz Taylor, he entered the Federal Witness Protection Program and began a new career, "to level the playing field," as he put it, "for the other idiots trying to make it in Show Business."

Mike Marvell

Mike Marvell has been doing comedy professionally for over 25 years, although he's been making people laugh his whole life. He told his guidance counciler in high school he wanted to be an engineer and she told him "With your grades? That's hilarious, you should be a comedian!" His comedy is based on growing up in Wisconsin... football, hunting, fishing, his family, and his wife and kids. He's performed at everything from churches to swinger clubs, grade schools to colleges, country clubs. to biker clubs, nursing homes to casinos (same thing). Instant likability, he reminds you of your crazy cousin, the guy next door, your brother-in-law. Even if you don't hire him you'll still want to hang out with him.
