Overview

Hello my name is Shane Scharer and I tell jokes. I am a Des Moines, IA
based comic who decided in 2019 at the age of 45 to attend my first open mic. I am a manic livewire of almost constant high energy. My comic style has been described as sarcastic story telling with a dose of self-deprecation shedding light on my many journeys from marriage, raising children, being a Gen-Xer, and my family life growing up.

Great Experience

Shane and a friend each did about 30 min of stand-up for our company holiday party and the crowd really enjoyed the show. Shane was great to work with!

About

Hey there, I'm Shane, your friendly neighborhood comic hailing from the heart of Des Moines, IA! Picture this: in 2019, at the ripe age of 45, I boldly took the plunge into the world of stand-up comedy by hitting my very first open mic. Talk about a late bloomer, right?

My comedic style is a unique blend of sarcastic storytelling infused with a healthy dose of self-deprecation. I'm here to shed light on the roller coaster of multiple marriages, the wild journey of raising kids/grand kids, and the hilarity that was my family life growing up.

Now, about my material - I've got a range that stretches from PG13 to R-rated. Yep, I'm not afraid to venture into the edgier side of humor. So, whether you're in the mood for a good chuckle or a hearty belly laugh, I've got you covered. So, buckle up, because when Shane takes the stage, you're in for a laughter-packed ride through the ups and downs of life, love, and the absurdity that comes with it all!
