Kyle Cease
Kyle Cease began his comedy career at the age of seven, performing for his grade school classes, and by the age of 18 he became the youngest headlining comedian in the Northwest United States. By 21 he had toured nationally and won the International Giggles Comedy Competition placed in the finals of the prestigious Seattle International Comedy Competition and completed his first major movie role.
While still living in his hometown of Seattle, WA, Kyle was cast as "Bogey Lowenstein", a nerdy future MBA in the hit Touchstone Feature, 10 Things I hate About You. Upon the release of this film, Kyle moved to Los Angeles to further his career in comedy and acting. He immediately began honing his act for the Los Angeles comedy scene and within months of his arrival won Comedy Central's 2002 Laugh Riots Hollywood Competition. Next, Kyle made his first television appearance on The Martin Short Show. Kyle's movie roles and his instantly likeable brand of humor quickly made him a favorite at colleges and clubs around the country.
Kyle also made a memorable appearance in the Columbia Pictures parody feature Not Another Teen Movie as "The Slow Clapper", a recurring character who tries to get everyone around him to start clapping, but unfortunately always at an inappropriate moment. There is even a spoof in the film of Kyle's character in 10 Things I Hate About You.
Recently, Kyle completed shooting the independent feature The Hand Job and has appeared on UPN's hit show One on One, Vh1's Super Secret Movie rules, and his comedy has been animated for National Lampoon's animated series Tuned Up. Next year Comedy Central will be releasing a CD/DVD in stores, featuring footage from his college tour. Kyle was also recently featured on E! Entertainment’s new series Hollywood High, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Premium Blend, and will have his own half hour Comedy Central Presents in 2006.
