Beauty Parlour Comedy featuring Mandee McKelvey
Jun 23 @ 9:00 pm
Asheville Beauty Academy

Mandee McKelvey was recently named one of the 50 best undiscovered comics in the country by Thrillist, and it’s not hard to see why. As one of the midwest’s most acclaimed stand-up comedians, Mandee is revered for her ability to spin tragedy into comedy, from growing up poor in South Carolina to becoming a widow in her 20’s. Wait, it gets funnier!

Mandee was named a breakout performer at Limestone Comedy Festival and the Memphis Comedy Festival, and has recently opened for Tig Notaro and Anthony Jeselnik. Her one-woman show, My Left Boob, received the Underdog Award for it’s sold-out debut at the 2019 IndyFringe.

Mandee produces the celebrated roast show Character Assassination and the storytelling show We Still Like You.

Also featuring Kelsey Rosen and Cody Hughes

 

What we’re about

A great place to find live Asheville’s live comedy performances and other local comedy fans!

We’ll be posting all the Asheville-area stand-up comedy shows in the area (assuming I know about them). We’ve met several of you already, and we’d love to meet more of you!

Asheville has a lot of great comedy. There’s touring comics performing in larger venues. Asheville is also home to a thriving local scene with great local comics performing in smaller venues and opening for touring comics. There is also a great selection of open mics, so if you ever have the itch to try something out, you’ll have plenty of opportunities.

He is a regular at Goodnight’s Comedy Club and The Improv in Raleigh, NC and has been a featured performer at comedy festivals around the country, including Laughing Skull Comedy Festival, Asheville Comedy Festival, and Cleveland Comedy Festival, where he was selected as a Best of the Fest.

His comedy has also been featured on Sirius XM. Kenyon is a sought-out comedian in Chicago and is a regular at the Laugh Factory, Zanie’s and Comedy Bar, along with Good Nights and Helium. Growing up biracial with disabled parents, Kenyon brings a unique perspective to the stage that leaves audiences wanting more.”

Beauty Parlour Comedy featuring Blaire Postman
Jul 3 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Asheville Beauty Academy

Comedian Blaire Postman is your high energy, fast-talking,
faster-thinking, GenX, ADD cool aunt with no chill.
She’s been featured by the PBS NewsHour podcast, The Happy Trucker Radio Show, and streamed on dozens of NBC affiliates across the country via Roku.
Blaire headlines indy clubs, features for renowned headliners at large clubs across the country, and has been selected to perform by many prestigious comedy festivals, including SF Sketchfest, Limestone & 10,000 Laughs. She also regularly appears at clubs and established alt comedy rooms in New York.
She’s perhaps best known for her signature flip-chart comedy bits, including The History of Super Bowl Halftime Shows (though she wants you to know that she also has many excellent non-flip-chart jokes).
In June 2021, she debuts her one person show – Struggling Chartist – which threads together a selection of her signature flip-chart comedy bits with a narrative exploring the ramifications of living the first 35+ years of her life with undiagnosed, and then undertreated, ADHD. Blaire explores how it is she came to embrace, love and succeed with her ADD “tornado” brain – and how the comedy flip charts and her ADD are related. While there were challenges, the tale largely reveals the many advantages – comedic and otherwise – that come with thinking differently about things. And who better to teach the upside of thinking differently than a person who’s been officially diagnosed as a differently-thinker?
