ABOUT US
Dawn & Chris are the dynamic comedy couple behind FWAF Show (formerly X2 Comedy) and have survived a quarter century of marriage! They perform solo and as a duo, teach comedy classes, and foster the growth of their local comedy scene. Chris teaches Kinesiology at JMU and Dawn hosts the podcast Virginia Is for Laughers, a podcast about all things non-hiking in the Shenandoah Valley;-) Proving opposites attract (think Keely Jones & Roy Kent from Ted Lasso) Dawn brings a witty charm and "we are family" vibe to the stage. While Chris exposes a a dry sarcastic sense of humor paired with his witty comedic style.
Fun Fact: This Podcaster & Professor raised a son that played in the NFL, first with the Saints!
