Third Act Comedy is the brainchild of comedians Christine Picón Van Duzer and Stacy Dymalski. Starting in November of 2023, for nearly two years they have produced consistently sold-out Third Act Comedy standup shows featuring female comics over the age of 40 (mostly over 50) in the cozy Tao Comedy Studio in Los Angeles. Too often older women are aged out of the spotlight—especially in comedy. But Christine and Stacy plan to flip that script. With decades of stories, sharp observations, and zero patience for anyone who gets in the way, the women comics that Christine and Stacy bring to the stage prove that life experience isn’t just valuable — it’s hilarious.

In January of 2025, Christine and Stacy brought on co-producer Jan Williams to help bring Third Act Comedy to the 2025 Hollywood Fringe Festival. Jan brings a wealth of experience in production and comedy, and is also a popular LA-based comedian.
