ComedYoga


I'm very excited about this show. So excited I'm making a growly face on the show poster.

I did my yoga teacher training at this yoga studio, so of course I was honored when the owners invited me to do comedy there. I have invited some of my favorite funny people in Boston: Josh Gondelman (Great American Comedy Festival, winner, Laughing Skull Comedy Festival), Jess Sutich (Producer and host of storytelling show A Night of Oral (tradition), and Ken Reid (Comedy Central jokes.com, Alt Com Festival).

The first thing people ask is if they’ll have to do any yoga, if it’s a yoga class. Nope, unless you feel like it. However you choose to move your body during the show is just fine, unless it creeps people out. Then you should stop it.

My mission with this show is threefold: to host a comedy show outside of the dimly lit, sloshed comedy club scene, to bring some levity to the sometimes very uptight, serious-about-enlightenment yoga scene, and the most important part of my mission: to take over the world with a combination of comedy and yoga.

ComedYoga - a comedy show, not a yoga class.

See you there and namaste, bitches.
