Los Angeles based surrealist comedian from Pittsburgh who's been training with the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, an improv troupe co-founded by Amy Poehler, won over British critics and festival-goers last August as she took home the coveted Best Newcomer award at the Edinburgh Fringe for her debut show, LAID.

Described as 'one of the strangest productions of this year's Fringe' by the Telegraph and directed by legendary comedian Dr Brown, LAID is a dark comedy about a woman who lays an egg every day and faces the dilemna to eat it or nurture it. It was awarded a range of four and five star reviews from publications including the Times, the Telegraph and Chortle, and begins a run at the Soho Theatre in November.
