Christi Somers Live

What shapes us? What breaks us? And how do we turn it into something worth laughing about?

Christi Somers, praised by The New York Times as “very funny” and named a “must-see” by Time Out New York, returns to Joe’s Pub with a new hour of comedy.

She dives into the chaos of childhood, the heartbreak of loss, the contradictions of faith, and the ridiculous beauty of simply surviving. With a mix of sharp writing, theatrical turns, and a kind of honesty that doesn’t stay tidy, her work sits somewhere between stand-up and something more immediate.

This hour is alive and it’ll leave you somewhere you didn’t plan to go.

Christi Somers (formerly Chiello) is a NY-based comedian, educator & speaker whose work blends stand-up with theatrical storytelling and a sharp point of view. Rooted in presence, authenticity, and real connection, she creates work that moves between humor and something more revealing—both onstage and in the room.
