TRACY ROWLAND:
Tracy Rowland is that rare New Yorker who likes to talk. Except she’s from New Jersey, which makes her rarer still. She has appeared onstage with The Moth, Speakeasy and the notorious BTK band. Tracy makes her living as a promotion and marketing editor at NBC, and is responsible for that Dateline promo involving 50-year-olds who want to hook up with your teenage daughter. She’s got a one-eyed cat, a passport and a knack for physical injury. Sometimes, the stories just write themselves.

Alexandra de Suze is tall and "ethnically ambiguous," but her commanding stage presence is primarily due to her raw talent. Whether she hits or misses with a particular song, you sit up and take notice because de Suze has got de Voice.
In her recent show at Mama Rose's, Following My Voice,
de Suze took on a wide range of musical styles....she
displayed a gift for jazz, singing "Embraceable You" in homage to Sarah
Vaughan. And she showed off a Broadway-style belt in renditions of
"Mama Will Provide" and "Brand New Day," the latter performed a cappella.
Classically trained, de Suze also dazzled with an aria from Carmen...a very talented newcomer....She not only has de Voice, she also has de Personality and the de Looks to make a name for herself. If all of that comes together, Alexandra de Suze could loom large.

non-inspirational" speaker. He has written and performed sketch comedy
and has written and produced comedic plays.
Besides the non-motivational “Why Work?”, he frequently presents his tutorial on the American political process titled “Is Dick Cheney Evil?” including the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland, the Boston Comedy Festival, the DC Comedy Festival, the NY Comedy Festival and the NY Underground Comedy Festival.
