Crazy or Nah?!A one woman show by Kellye Howard
Presented as part of the LookOut Series
Thursday, August 18-20 at 8pm
Sunday, August 21 at 3pm
General Admission Ticket Price: $27
Crazy or Nah?! is something like a one woman show, comedically questioning the lasting effects of emotional and psychological trauma. Using storytelling, poetry, and stand-up comedy, Kellye tells a winding road story exemplifying resilience, finding inner joy, and the importance of introspection in the acceptance of some of life’s most challenging ebbs.
Named Chicago's Boldest comedian by the Chicago Sun-times, Kellye fully live’s up to that title in this latest work. As a 15 year stand up comedy veteran, a known actress, and a graduate of Second City conservatory; Kellye uses all of her training and experience to create an unforgettable performance which incorporates poetry amongst other unconventional ways to tell an intimate tale.
About Kellye Howard: Kellye Howard (she/her) is a United States Air Force veteran and since leaving the military has spent the last decade making a name for herself in roles on Chicago Fire, Chicago Justice, Empire, national commercials, and movies like Cherry starring Tom Holland.
Kellye’s work on stage informs and compliments her work off stage; she’s the host of a five year old podcast, Be less Petty, Comedy self-help Podcast cohosted by a licensed Illinois therapist. In this podcast they discuss ways to live a less petty life from a comedic and clinical perspective. She’s no stranger to one woman shows. Her last one woman show Transparent was featured in the JFL Chicago comedy festival, and circulated multiple comedy clubs and theaters across the country. Crazy or Nah! will be Kellye’s 3rd one woman show and in her own words, “the most authentic work I’ve done to date.”
