Linda Kuriloff's Putting Together a Solo Standup Comedy Show

Linda Kuriloff's Putting Together a Solo Standup Comedy Show

In February of this year, I was chosen as a semi-finalist in Sherri Shepherd’s, Funny Over 50! It was an amazing experience and as much a shock to me as anyone else (I’m a trained actor)!

When my spiritual growth became a priority and one of the things I stopped doing was cussing, making it almost impossible to be cast in complex, worldly roles, I had to start writing for myself. In 2023, I told God I wanted to put more energy into standup comedy writing since that's something I can do on my own terms. Then in 2024, I was chosen as a semi-finalist in a national comedy contest that had hundreds of national submissions! God definitely has a sense of humor! Now for 2025, I want to be a headliner, so I’m working to put my act together!

Because I work during the day and can’t spend late nights in comedy clubs, I need a live audience to test enough “funny stuff” (I think) to perform my own show of about an hour. I’m doing these live performances to work out some new material! I need help from you to know what’s REALLY funny! What should stay in and what should I chuck? The show is "donation only", but you’ll have to make a reservation, as space is limited. If you’d like to see me keep spreading laughter to the masses, then leave a healthy donation! ;)

In case you missed it, here’s a link to catch you up on what happened earlier this year:
