Let’s meet one of our local stand-ups, ROGER NORQUIST!

Out of all the Rogers in the world there are only five named Norquist but only one Roger Norquist tells one-liners to strangers for booze money. He performs on shows around Denver. Things this particular Roger has done: recently opened for rising superstars in the comedy world, such as Reggie Watts (Comedy Bang Bang, Conan) and Rob Cantrell (NBC, Comedy Central); writer and performer of Badhouse! Sketch Comedy!; performed multiple times on Too Much Fun at the Deer Pile and performed on Denver’s own Too Much Funstival 2011 with Tj Miller (Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, Yogi Bear, Gulliver’s Travels, ); he is well aware that Han shoots first.
