Stand Up Comedy: Laurie Kilmartin

Description

Laurie Kilmartin is a comedian and staff writer for CONAN. She has performed standup on CONAN, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Apple TV, Comedy Central and Showtime. Her special 45 Jokes About My Dead Dad made Vulture's list of Top Ten Comedy Specials of 2016. Laurie has also written two books, Dead People Suck and the New York Times bestseller Shitty Mom. She and fellow comic Jackie Kashian host a popular podcast about standup comedy called The Jackie and Laurie Show. Her new album, Corset, was released at #1 on the iTunes charts.

Featuring for Laurie is Wisconsin standup comedian Raegan Niemela. Raegan Niemela wandered out of Upper Michigan’s forests a disgusting, feral child. Then some idiot gave her a microphone and here we are. You can catch her grunting at audiences throughout the Midwest. Though she is potty trained, she still bites — just ask the headliners she’s opened for, like Gareth Reynolds or Kyle Kinane.

This performance is sponsored by our friends at Shooting Star Travels, located at 112 N Main Street and at www.shootingstartravels.com
