Special Guests Julie Gillespie and Sarah Sanders:
Being funny is new to Sarah who stepped into the comedy scene after a wild, bizarre, you can’t make this up dating event during Covid. Pulling from real life experiences and leaving no details left unturned, Sarah keeps audiences entertained and wondering what’s next. Sarah, who hails from the Roaring Fork Valley near Aspen, CO, spends her career time as the Events Manager at The Collective in Snowmass. After helping create the Snowmass Live Comedy Series, she decided to give stand-up a shot. She was a top competitor in the Colorado Comedy Competition and has participated in various open mics nationwide.
Roaring Fork Valley local Julie Gillespie placed second at the Aspen Laugh Festival Comedy Competition and was a top participant at the Colorado Comedy Competition. Her larger-than-life Texas personality is exemplified on stage with funny antidotes, stories and wit. She checks in at only 5’2” but packs a comedic punch. Her goal, becoming “Julie the Millionaire,” is not going as planned, but her creative millionaire efforts keep the audience laughing till the cows come home.
