SKIN TAG
Skin Tag is a new show featuring sketch and stand-up from an eclectic cast of friends Holmes Holmes (FOX), Taylor Ortega (JFL, HBO, Disney), Jessy Mornier-Ritt, Carly Kane, and Molly Kearney (Clusterfest).
THE CAST
Holmes Holmes
Holmes Holmes (she/they) is a comedian, actor, and writer born and raised in multiple states (scary they have no hometown). Holmes stars in the upcoming FOX show “Welcome to Flatch”, premiering March 2022, and co-hosts the traveling show “At What Cost” and "Come Thru" with Caleb Hearon. Pre-pandemic, she improvised weekly at iO in Chicago as a part of "Mothership" and LGBTQIA+ group "Dreamboat"; now you can often catch them doing standup around LA where they decided to move after only visiting for a day :)
Taylor Ortega
Taylor Ortega (she/her) is an LA based comedian, actor and writer. In 2019, Taylor was selected as a New Face at Montreal’s Just For Laughs comedy festival (maybe the last one ever? JK. But maybe?), where NPR called her a standout performer. She played Shego in Disney Channel Original Movie Kim Possible and recently wrapped the first season of Welcome To Flatch, a new mockumentary comedy series for FOX directed by Paul Feig and starring who? Her bestie Holmes Holmes. Pretty cute. Taylor can also be seen in the HBO Max series Love Life with Anna Kendrick, on HBO’s Succession and the upcoming A24 film After Yang. She’s looking for a pet (cat or dog, no birds) so if you hear of any up for grabs, DM her. Update: she got a cat and then got a tattoo for the cat. Sad!
Jessy Morner-Ritt
Jessy Morner-Ritt (she/her) is a stand-up, improviser, writer and performer based in Los Angeles.
She created and produced the live immersive show “Joy’s Bed and Breakfast” that ran monthly at at Union Hall and The Glove (Brooklyn), as well as toured at The Lyric Hyperion (LA) and The Black Cat (Washington, DC). Jessy co-wrote, performed and hosted the live "Smaltown Arts Appreciation Society Presents" at Film Noir Cinema (BK), The Hideout Inn (Chicago) and Junior High Art Gallery (Los Angeles). Jessy previously co-hosted the monthly comedy variety show "Just a Show" at Sunnyvale.
Jessy has performed on Hot Tub with Kurt and Kristen (LA), Helltrap Nightmare (Chicago), Second City Mainstage (Chicago), Underground Comedy (Washington, DC), Church Night (DC) and Joke Bath (Philadelphia). She was a regular performer at the Brooklyn Comedy Collective (NY) and has also opened for the band Bully during the LA leg of their 2021 tour, but that's actually a longer story than a bio allows for.
Carly Kane
Carly Kane (she/her) is a stand-up comedian and producer based out of Los Angeles. She is a former producer of The Blackout Diaries, a critically acclaimed story-telling show and Diamond Comedy Hour, a stand-up show featuring female and GNC performers.

She was a cast member of Lincoln Lodge, the country's longest stand up comedy collective and host of Coles in Chicago. She has been featured in Rebellious Magazine and The Chicago Tribune. You can find her telling jokes throughout the city in clubs, bars, basements, and on the phone with her Mom.
Molly Kearney
