Brian ReganBrian JK Regan came to Los Angeles by way of Atlanta in Fall 2012, soon after graduating from New York University’s Gallatin School. His introduction to entertainment as art came through a decade of summer employment at Circus Camp, where improv and clowning were fundamental to his day-to-day responsibilities. Across his time in college, he developed a course of study in comedy writing; covering everything from screenplays to stage plays, satire to stand-up. Soon after arriving in LA, he interned at a management company before taking the leap to become a personal assistant to a nationally-touring comedian. After another, separate assistant role to Kirkland comic Sammy Obeid, Brian was able to employ his first-hand understanding of the college market in order to join Kirkland Productions as Gina’s right-hand man at the end of 2015.
In Fall 2020, Brian became the owner and president of the agency, then moved the entire enterprise back to his hometown of Atlanta, GA. When he’s not laughing, you can find Brian at the roller rink, the swimming pool, or his bed—kicking back to read essays on any topic. He lives in East Lake with a near-perfect cat named Ponce, and he hasn’t yet met the legendary comedian Brian Regan but it’s inevitable. |

Artist Representation Inquiries
If you are a comic seeking representation, please contact us at booking@kpcomedy.com. To be considered for representation, you need to include the following:
Our primary consideration when looking at new comics is whether or not the act is a fit for the college market. Material should be relatable to a college-aged audience and appropriate for that audience.
** If the video you send to us contains heavy profanity, is racist, or misogynistic, you will not be considered for representation. Please do not send a club video with a statement that you CAN be clean. Only college appropriate videos will be considered. **
Please know that we get a lot of representation inquiries. Though we do try to respond to everyone, we have limited availability on our roster and most of our reviewing of potential artists occurs during March and November.
