Mike Dugan

Mike Dugan has performed extensively throughout America, appearing at comedy clubs, colleges, corporate events, and as an opening act for musical artists such as Roy Orbison, Ricki Lee Jones, Chuck Berry, Harry Belafonte, and Shawn Colvin.
Mike grew up in Ramsey, New Jersey and began performing stand up comedy at New York's famed 'Catch a Rising Star' comedy club in 1985. In early 1987 he set out for San Francisco's 'Holy City Zoo' Comedy Club to experience what was then the "hands down best comedy scene in the country", and by the end of 1988 he had won the prestigious San Francisco International Stand-up Comedy Competition, capping off the month-long event with two shows for
six thousand comedy fans at Davies Symphony Hall. A move to Los Angeles quickly led to a shot on 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson'. Johnny raved, and that debut was followed by over seventy television appearances, including one more spot on "Johnny" before his retirement and another appearance with Jay Leno - making Mike one of only a handful of comics to have appeared on 'The Tonight Show' with both Johnny and Jay. Dugan spent two years touring throughout Europe and the UK while developing Men Fake Foreplay, and has performed 'Men Fake Foreplay' in London, Paris, Amsterdam, and the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland. Mike has spent the last year performing Men Fake Foreplay and completing plans for the 'Men Fake Foreplay' 2008 Tour.
