Hailing from the People’s Republic of Annapolis, Md., Bill Monaghan has been honing his comedic chops since 2006. He may possibly be the most immature mature person you’ll ever encounter. His absurd, one-liner style is “Rated R” due to strong language, adult situations, and brief nudity. You’ll be fine. Don’t be a prude.

He was featured in an episode of Kevin Hart's “Hart of the City” on Comedy Central and recently filmed a set for Don't Tell Comedy that has garnered over 4 Million views across social media platforms. Lafayette won Comedy Kumite 11.1 (summer 2017) at the DC Improv, as well as Kumite 13.1 and 13.2 (winter 2018), Kumite 17.1 and 17.2 (fall 2018), and a Tournament of Champions (winter 2019).
