Gerry Potoka started stand-up comedy because being a public educator just isn’t quite entertaining enough. Transplanting from Richmond County, North Carolina to Raleigh, Gerry’s personal experiences and perspectives offer a unique portrayal of his day-to-day life, career, thoughts, and feelings. Gerry has performed up and down the east coast opening for comedians such as Josh Johnson, Joe Dombrowski, Bo Johnson, Jamie Wolf, Gaspare Randazzo, and more! In addition to occasionally hosting for “The Teachers Lounge” Comedy Tour, he was also a finalist for 2025's North Carolina’s Funniest Person and co-hosts the “How To Survive the Classroom” podcast with Andrea Forcum.

For one night only, Gerry is joined by some of the funniest people he knows who have impacted himself and the local scene in more ways than one. Gerry will be joined by Collin Brown, Carey James, Jack Obringer, Kay Baratti, HL Boney, and Mark Brady!
